Two-dimensional control of light with light on metasurfaces
The ability to control the wavefront of light is fundamental to focusing and redistribution of light, enabling many applications from imaging to spectroscopy. Wave interaction on highly nonlinear photorefractive materials is essentially the only established technology allowing the dynamic control of the wavefront of a light beam with another beam of light, but it is slow and requires large opti...
متن کاملPolarization Control of Light
New ideas for interactions and particles: This paper examines the possibility to origin the Spontaneously Broken Symmetries from the Planck Distribution Law. This way we get a Unification of the Strong, Electromagnetic, and Weak Interactions from the interference occurrences of oscillators. Understanding that the relativistic mass change is the result of the magnetic induction we arrive to the ...
متن کاملThin anisotropic metasurfaces for simultaneous light focusing and polarization manipulation
The possibility of integration of two important categories of optical components, i.e., circular polarizer and lens, into a thin plasmonic metasurface is examined, for the realistic case when metal losses cannot be neglected, for example when operating in the visible spectrum, or at infrared when non-noble metals are used. We introduce a metasurface made of nanoantennas that offer enough degree...
متن کاملGap plasmon-based metasurfaces for total control of reflected light
In the quest to miniaturise photonics, it is of paramount importance to control light at the nanoscale. We reveal the main physical mechanism responsible for operation of gap plasmon-based gradient metasurfaces, comprising a periodic arrangement of metal nanobricks, and suggest that two degrees of freedom in the nanobrick geometry allow one to independently control the reflection phases of orth...
متن کاملPolarization of Light by Vegetation
Here we shall examine the phenomenon of surface-scattered light from both leaves and plant canopies. Results from measurements will show that this surface-scattered light — a quasi-specular reflection if the leaves appear shiny — originates at the interface between the air and the cuticle wax layer. Unlike light that is diffusely reflected by the interior of a leaf, the surface-scattered light ...
