1D AND 3D SOFT CHIRAL PHOTONIC CRYSTALS
Abstract
Photonic crystals, metasurfaces, and plasmonic nanostructures are photonic platforms that exhibit intriguing and practically useful characteristics for manipulating light. However, the state-of-the-art structures experimentally realized by nanofabrication or self-assembly techniques are generally thin, and thus their optical performances far from optimum in that many of their characteristics rely strongly on the multiple interference of light waves, accumulated optical phase, and other collective interactions among constituent unit cells. A significant increase of the thickness is needed but hindered by many nanofabrication difficulties and adverse side effects, e.g., exponentially enhanced absorption and scattering losses.
