Amorphous silicon (a-Si) metasurfaces demonstrate remarkable light manipulation capabilities owing to their high refractive index and low loss characteristics. However, the thermal conductance intrinsic a-Si leads substantial heat accumulation during beam modulation, which may cause damage limit permissible intensity of incident beam. Here, laser-induced crystallization improve transport properties a-Si-based metasurface is proposed. Raman spectroscopy analysis identifies thresholds at 1.10 × 10 5 9.78 4 W/cm 2 , corresponding laser spot radii 1.30 0.54 μm, respectively. The maximum temperature rise in crystallized 52% lower than that one under identical power intensity. Furthermore, polycrystalline still maintains excellent optical response with transmission 2π phase control. These findings provide an effective strategy for augmenting dissipation amorphous systems, potentially extending utility fluence.
