Tunable high-Q resonances based on the asymmetric nanohole array of phase-change material

Abstract Dielectric metasurfaces have made great progress over the past decade to enhance light-matter interaction. Recently, dielectric nanohole structures have been employed for the creation of dielectric metasurfaces. However, the optical characteristics of most dielectric nanohole structures remain fixed once they are manufactured. This study investigates the optical properties of Ge 2 Sb 2 Te 5 (GST) film perforated with a periodic dual nanohole array. The GST dual nanohole array is capable of supporting multiple guided resonances and bound states in the continuum (BICs). By introducing asymmetry in the radius, BICs can be transformed into quasi-BICs with high- Q resonances. The wavelengths of guided resonances and quasi-BICs can be dynamically controlled through the phase transition of GST. Furthermore, modifying the gap allows for the achievement of active high- Q electromagnetically induced transparency, resulting from the interaction between one guided resonance and one quasi-BIC mode. The GST asymmetric nanohole array holds potential for applications in optical modulators, slow-light devices, and nonlinear optical devices.
