Abstract

Dynamic color adjustment technology has broad prospects in invisibility, anti-counterfeiting, and display, and is an important research direction in structural color. This study investigates the excitation of magnetic dipole resonances in the visible region by titanium dioxide (TiO2) metasurfaces using elastic dielectric polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and applied to dynamic color modulation. The near-field interaction between the resonant dielectric elements can be modulated using the mechanical strain of the PDMS substrate, enabling the advection of the resonance peak of the structure throughout the visible range, thereby achieving a wide color gamut. The color structure of TiO2 metasurface is sensitive to the refractive index of the surrounding medium. Moreover, active switching between the “ON” state (highly reflective at a selected wavelength) and the “OFF” state (transparent) can be achieved through the deformation of the flexible PDMS substrate. The proposed method can be applied to fields such as sensor displays and spectroscopy and for studying stretchable and wearable photonics.
