Abstract

Quasi-bound states in the continuum (q-BICs) in optical metasurfaces have been found to carry special radiation polarization properties. Herein, we have studied the relationship between the radiation polarization state of a q-BIC and the polarization state of the output wave, and theoretically proposed a perfect linear polarization wave generator controlled by the q-BIC. The proposed q-BIC has an x-polarized radiation state, and the y co-polarized output wave is completely eliminated by introducing additional resonance at the q-BIC frequency. Finally, a perfect x-polarized transmission wave with very low background scattering is obtained, and the transmission polarization state is not limited by the incident polarization state. The device can be used to efficiently obtain narrowband linearly polarized waves from non-polarized waves, and can also be used for polarization-sensitive high-performance spatial filtering.
