摘要
Active control of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) is highly desired for nanophotonics. Here we employ a phase change material Ge2Sb2Te5 (GST) to actively manipulate the propagating direction of SPPs at the telecom wavelength. By utilizing the phase transition-induced refractive index change of GST, coupled with interference effects, a nanoantenna pair containing GST is designed to realize switchable one-way launching of SPPs. Devices based on the nanoantenna pairs are proposed to manipulate SPPs, including the direction tuning of SPP beams, switchable SPP focusing, and switchable cosine-Gauss SPP beam generating. Our design can be employed in compact optical circuits and photonics integration.
