摘要

Active chiral metasurfaces are highly required for the applications in stereochemistry, molecular biology and polarization optics. In this paper, the giant and large-range multistate switchable circular dichroism (CD) is realized in a Ge2Sb2Te5 (GST) based intrinsic chiral metasurface. The CD magnitude could be continually tuned from near zero to near unity by controlling the crystalline degree of GST. The near-unity CD originates from the polarization selective excitations of electric quadrupole (EQ), anapole and magnetic dipole (MD) resonances, which is simultaneously demonstrated by quantitative multipole decomposition and electromagnetic field distribution analysis. The GST-based intrinsic chiral metasurfaces with the capability of dynamic polarization control have great potentials in the next generation polarization nanodevices.
