The intrinsic chirality of natural materials is known to be weak, prompting extensive efforts enhance chiral light-matter interactions on the metasurface platform. Chiral metasurfaces are typically created by manipulating geometry nanostructures, such as three-dimensional helical structures and slanted structures. However, these approaches generally challenging implement experimentally in optical frequency ranges. Here, we present achievement significant planar lithium niobate metasurfaces. We theoretically demonstrate that birefringence enables a strong coupling between two nearly degenerate resonant modes when rotating axis. Despite achiral geometric morphology structure, show mixed exhibit can produce full circular dichroism signals. Moreover, validate our theoretical proposal using advanced process technique for nanostructures measured signal reaches −0.53. These findings offer new possibilities metaphotonics. locked icon Physics Subject Headings (PhySH)Fano resonanceNanophotonicsPhotonic crystalsPhotonicsNonlinear materialsPolarizationDielectric spectroscopy

Usually, the chiral response of natural molecules is very weak. However, emergence metasurfaces offers a promising solution solve this issue. By judiciously designing geometry meta-atoms, we have realized strong circular dichroism (CD) both linear nonlinear regimes. tuning CD with metasurface remains challenging. Here, propose twist-angle-controlled effect by using second-harmonic generation process on gold–crystal hybrid metasurface. The waves can be tuned well controlling twist angle between two constituent materials. proposed may open new avenues for developing ultracompact multifunctional devices.
