The control of light-matter interaction in metasurfaces offers an unexplored potential for the excitation and manipulation of light. Here, we combine experimental terahertz time-domain spectroscopy and near-field scanning terahertz microscopy to demonstrate the role of reciprocal vectors in the transmission and plasmonic resonances of quasicrystal metasurfaces. An investigation of two-dimensional metasurface structures with different rotationally symmetric quasicrystal arrangements demonstrates that the transmission minima resulting from Wood's anomaly are directly related to the surface plasmon resonances. We also find that the surface plasmon resonances of the quasicrystal metasurface were determined by the reciprocal vectors, which could be well explained by the coupling condition of the resonances, and the characteristic frequencies remain un-shifted under various slit sizes. Our findings demonstrate a new potential in developing novel plasmonic metasurfaces.

Herein, oxide quasicrystal-related (OQC-R) structure and Ce-Ti-O-(3 × 3) superstructure ultrathin films were prepared on Pt(111) and characterized using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and low-energy electron diffraction. The OQC-R structure with dodecagonal clusters consisting of triangles, squares, and rhombuses was observed in STM images. The first discovery of the OQC-R structure with a magnetic rare earth metal expands the possibility of discovering new oxide quasicrystals with novel magnetism or superconductivity.

A highly sensitive dual-core photonic quasicrystal fiber methane sensor based on surface plasmon resonance is designed and analyzed. In this sensor, cryptophane is doped with polysiloxane and Ag and used as the sensitive film and plasma medium, respectively, for sensitive detection of methane. The influence of the structural parameters on the sensor properties is analyzed by the finite element method.

In this work, we present and analyze a design of an absorber-waveguide system combining a highly sensitive waveguide array concept with a resonant selective absorber. The waveguide part is composed of an array of coupled strip waveguides and is therefore called a coupled strip array (CSA). The CSA is then coupled to the end of a slab Tamm plasmon (STP-) resonator, which is composed of a quasicrystal-like reflector formed by the patterning of a silicon slab and an interfacing tungsten slab.

High-order harmonic generation (HHG) in solids was expected to be efficient due to their high density. However, the strict transition laws in crystals restrict the number of HHG channels. Quasicrystals with fractal band structures could solve this problem and produce multichannel HHG emissions, which has been rarely studied.
