Optically switchable and rewritable phase-change (dielectric) metamaterials
Optically switchable and rewritable phase-change (dielectric) metamaterials
Switchable and nonlinear metamaterials, with properties surpassing those of natural media, will underpin the next stage of the photonic technological revolution, providing a functional platform for nanoscale ‘meta-devices’, and it has been seen recently that all-dielectric architectures can deliver metamaterial functionalities free from the high resistive losses inherent to noble metal frameworks. Phase-change media take us a step further by providing for optically-driven, non-volatile switching, tuning and reconfiguration of meta-devices. We report here on recent advances in the development of versatile, planar photonic chalcogenide metamaterials to provide a new generation of nanoscale optical switching and memory devices.

Abstract
Switchable and nonlinear metamaterials, with properties surpassing those of natural media, will underpin the next stage of the photonic technological revolution, providing a functional platform for nanoscale ‘meta-devices’, and it has been seen recently that all-dielectric architectures can deliver metamaterial functionalities free from the high resistive losses inherent to noble metal frameworks. Phase-change media take us a step further by providing for optically-driven, non-volatile switching, tuning and reconfiguration of meta-devices. We report here on recent advances in the development of versatile, planar photonic chalcogenide metamaterials to provide a new generation of nanoscale optical switching and memory devices.
