Design principle of a narrowband metasurface. (a) Three-dimensional schematic view of a metasurface based on dolmen structures on a metal backplane. The nanostructures are made of silver, with a 30 nm-thick SiO2 spacer. (b) Top view of the optimized supercell, with periods of nm and
nm. The length
nm of the central nanorod along the y direction is fixed, whereas the length of the pair of parallel nanorods along the x direction is
or 125 nm; the width and thickness are
nm for all structures. (c, d) Calculated (c) amplitude and (d) phase spectra of the fields reflected from two periodic arrays with parallel nanorod pairs of different lengths:
and 115 nm. (e, f) The amplitude and relative phase maps as a function of both wavelength and length L2. The phase is expressed as the relative phase shift with respect to that in the case of L2=105 nm.
