Manipulation on radiation angles via spatially organized multipoles with vertical split-ring resonators

Abstract: Herein, the radiation patterns of single-split ring resonators (SSRRs) and double-split ring resonators (DSRRs) in the vertical direction are tailored by reconfiguring the resonator geometries. To design unequal arm lengths for controlling the floating split angle of the resonators and changing their electromagnetic multipole compositions, vertical metamaterials were fabricated using the metal-stress-driven self-folding method. The simulation results well agree with the experimental transmittance and reflectance results and demonstrate the geometry-dependent angle variation of the far-field radiation. Symmetric SSRRs and DSRRs radiate in the vertical and horizontal directions, respectively. With increasing pad shift, the radiation angle of the asymmetric SSRR completely rotates toward the horizontal direction along the ring plane, but the DSRRs can rotate only from 0° to 45° to the horizontal plane. Furthermore, by decomposing the multipoles into their constituents, we show that the directional scattering performance can be verified by manipulating the horizontal and vertical components of the electric dipoles. This novel combination of SSRRs and DSRRs can effectively and efficiently reconfigure the radiation direction in the infrared (IR) region, paving the way for color routers, metasurfaces, and directive IR emitters in compact optical metadevices.
