Nonlinear interaction of two trapped-mode resonances in a bilayer fish-scale metamaterial

Abstract: We report on a bistable light transmission through a bilayer "fish-scale" (meander-line) metamaterial. It is demonstrated that an all-optical switching may be achieved nearly the frequency of the high-quality-factor Fano-shaped trapped-mode resonance excitation. The nonlinear interaction of two closely spaced trapped-mode resonances in the bilayer structure composed with a Kerr-type nonlinear dielectric slab is analyzed in both frequency and time domains. It is demonstrated that these two resonances react diff… Show more

“…Only within the dynamical framework one can describe the fast processes and influence of the inhomogeneous field distribution inside a gain slab, as well as correctly predict establishment of the stationary state or lasing in metal-dielectric structures [36][37][38]. For the multilayer we reveal the frames of applicability of the transfer-matrix method using comparison with the inhouse finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method [39,40]. The FDTD approach describes the frequency-dispersive metallike material response with the time-dependent equations, while the Bloch equations are employed for dielectric having resonant gain.…”

“…Previously, S-shaped-like structures have been proposed for perfect transmission/reflection, [52] chirality control, [53,54] and nonlinear coupling with trapped-mode resonances. [55] Here, we innovatively expand the nanophotonics applications of S-shaped nanostructure for optimal polarization conversion and control of nonlinear signal. Due to the inherently low radiative loss in the toroidal resonance, a record-high linear crosspolarization conversion of 22.9% in the optical frequency is experimentally obtained, which is comparable to the theoretical limit.…”

“…The trapped mode has a high Q factor because of its small radiation loss, so it can be used in sensor and modulator [11][12][13][14][15]. Researchers have focused on MMs containing a single trapped mode observed in simple one-meta-atom MMs for a long time, and in recent years, multiple trapped modes, usually excited in a complicated multi-meta-atom called metamolecule MMs, have attracted extensive attention due to their superior performance in terms of modifying resonant waveforms at multiple spectral locations simultaneously [16][17][18][19][20]. For example, two or more trapped modes are demonstrated in MMs with a double-chain meander wire array or two different lattices of metamolecules [19,20].…”
