Excitonic 2D Metasurfaces for Active Multifunctional Flat Optics
Can light fields be manipulated by a single atomic layer? Can quantum mechanical effects in monolayer materials be harnessed to realize dynamic optical elements? Recent work has demonstrated that light-weight and ultra-thin nanostructured optical coatings (metasurfaces) can perform the same optical functions as conventional bulky optical components. Despite these advances, metasurface optical elements have remained static. At the same time, newly emerging and future applications require optical elements with dynamic control of their functionality. Here, I propose to lay the foundations of a completely new class of tunable and multifunctional optical elements by combining recent developments…
