Transflective spatial terahertz wave modulator.

Spatial light modulators can digitally manipulate the amplitude, phase, and polarization of light. Their counterparts in the terahertz band are highly pursued to meet the requirements of numerous applications such as wireless communications and biomedical detection. Here, we propose a spatial terahertz wave modulator based on a liquid-crystal-integrated metadevice.

Chirality invertible superstructure mediated active planar optics.

Active planar optical devices that can dynamically manipulate light are highly sought after in modern optics and nanophotonics. The geometric phase derived from the photonic spin-orbit interaction provides an integrated strategy. Corresponding elements usually suffer from static functions.
