Quasi-bound states in the continuum with a stable resonance wavelength in dimer dielectric metasurfaces

Abstract: Symmetry-protected bound states in the continuum (SP-BICs) are one of the most intensively studied BICs. Typically, SP-BICs must be converted into quasi-BICs (QBICs) by breaking the unit cell’s symmetry so that they can be accessed by the external excitation. The symmetry-broken usually results in a varied resonance wavelength of QBICs which are also highly sensitive to the asymmetry parameters. In this work, we demonstrate that QBICs with a stable resonance wavelength can be realized by breaking translational symmetry in an all-dielectric metasurface. The unit cell of metasurface is made of a silicon nanodisk dimer. The Q-factor of QBICs is precisely tuned by changing the interspacing of two nanodisks while their resonance wavelength is quite stable against the interspacing. We also find that such BICs show weak dependence on the shape of the nanodisk. Multiple decompositions indicate that the toroidal dipole dominates this type of QBIC. The resonance wavelengths of QBICs can be tuned only by changing either the lattice constants or the radius of nanodisk. Finally, we present experimental demonstrations on such a QBIC with a stable resonance wavelength. The highest measured Q-factor of QBICs is >3000. Our results may find promising applications in enhancing light–matter interaction.
