Electrically Reconfigurable Nonvolatile Transmissive Metasurface in Visible

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
An electrically reconfigurable, non‐volatile metasurface operating in the visible spectrum is demonstrated using just 20 nm thick wide‐bandgap phase change material Sb2S3. On integration with a custom ultrathin silicon micro‐heater, the device achieves reversible switching with a 16 nm resonance tuning range at 610 nm, a wavelength largely under ...
