A circular ultra-short As2S3 filled double-core photonic crystal fiber polarization beam splitter is proposed. The finite element method is used to study the performance of the designed photonic crystal fiber polarization beam splitter. By filling high refractive index As2S3 into the central air hole, the coupling performance of the double-core PCF is improved. By optimizing geometric parameters, the splitting length of the circular beam splitter can be as short as 72.43 μm, and the extinction ratio can reach −151.42 dB. The high extinction ratio makes the circular polarization beam splitter have a good beam splitting function. The designed circular double-core photonic crystal fiber has the same cladding pore diameter, which is easier to prepare than other photonic crystal fibers with complex pore structure. Due to the advantages of high extinction ratio, extremely short beam splitting function and simple structure, the designed polarization beam splitter will be widely used in all-optical networks and optical device preparation.

Abstract The scattering behavior of the anisotropic acoustic medium is analyzed to reveal the possibility of routing acoustic signals through the anisotropic layers with no backscattering loss. The sound-transparent effect of such medium is achieved by independently modulating the anisotropic effective acoustic parameters in a specific order, and experimentally observed in a bending waveguide by arranging the subwavelength structures in the bending part according to transformation acoustics. With the properly designed filling structures, the original distorted acoustic field in the bending waveguide is restored as if the wave travels along a straight path. The transmitted acoustic signal is maintained nearly the same as the incident modulated Gaussian pulse. The proposed schemes and the supporting results could be instructive for further acoustic manipulations such as wave steering, cloaking and beam splitting.

Abstract Topological valley transport in photonic crystals (PCs) has attracted great attention owing to its edge modes immune to backscattering. However, flexibly dynamically controlling and reconfiguring the pathway of the topological one-way propagation is still challenging. Here, we propose a tunable and programmable valley PC structure based on nematic liquid crystals (LCs). Inversion symmetry breaking and topological transition are implemented through controlling the relative permittivity of the LC cells. Topological protection of valley edge states and valley-locked beam splitting are demonstrated. Moreover, the LC-based PC can be discretized to a number of supercells, each of which can be coded with “0” or “1”. The wave propagation pathway can be dynamically reconfigured by programming different coding patterns.

Abstract The merge of neural network with metasurfaces is a rising subject in photonics design, which offers an abstract bridge between the geometry of the subwavelength element and the optical response. The commonly involved optical response is the transmission or reflection spectrum, while here we focus on metasurfaces with superwavelength elements and predict multiple diffraction spectra in all the possible orders and orthogonal polarization modes given the geometry. This is achieved by parallel arrangement of several fully connected neural networks with shared input and diverse output diffraction spectra. As an application example, the model is used to find a metagrating as a 1:1 beam splitter in TE mode and 1:1:1 beam splitter in TM mode. The design is taken into fabrication and experimentally tested at 0.14 THz with highly consistent results to the prediction.

Abstract We propose a novel metasurface based on a combined pattern of outer C-shaped ring and inner rectangular ring. By Fourier convolution operation to generating different predesigned sequences of metasurfaces, we realize various functionalities to flexible manipulate terahertz waves including vortex terahertz beam splitting, anomalous vortex terahertz wave deflection, vortex terahertz wave splitting and deflection simultaneously. The incident terahertz wave can be flexibly controlled in a single metasurface. The designed metasurface has an extensive application prospect in the field of future terahertz communication and sensing.

AbstractIntegrating different reliable functionalities in metastructures and metasurfaces has become of remarkable importance to create innovative multifunctional compact acoustic, optic or mechanical metadevices. In particular, implementing different wave manipulations in one unique material platform opens an appealing route for developing integrated metamaterials. Here, the concept of Janus acoustic metascreen is proposed and demonstrated, producing two-faced and independent wavefront manipulations for two opposite incidences. The feature of two-faced sound modulations requires nonreciprocal phase modulating elements. An acoustic resonant unit cell with rotating inner core, which produces a bias by a circulating fluid, is designed to achieve high nonreciprocity, leading to decoupled phase modulations for both forward and backward directions. In addition, the designed unit cell consisting of tunable phase modulators is reconfigurable. A series of Janus acoustic metascreens including optional combinations of extraordinary refraction, acoustic focusing, sound absorption, acoustic diffusion, and beam splitting are demonstrated through numerical simulations and experiments, showing their great potential for acoustic wavefront manipulation.
