Abstract

Nowadays, the electromagnetic properties of artificial photonic materials can be well-tuned via designs over their composition and geometries. However, engineering the properties of artificial materials at the nanoscale is challenging and costly. Here we demonstrate a facile and low-cost method for fabricating large-area silver nanoparticle metasurfaces (AgNPMSs) by using the vectorial holography-mediated growth technique. The AgNPMS, which can be regarded as a hologram device, possesses excellent chiroptical properties. The vectorial holographic technique may open avenues for fabricating novel chiroptical metamaterials with large degrees of freedom, which can be further used for beam steering, photocatalysis, biosensing, etc.
