摘要
The interconnection of polarization and phase in electromagnetic scattering process has attracted both fundamental and practical interest.Here we propose the principle and experimental demonstration of a scatteringcontrol mechanism based on the simultaneous control of polarization and phase via a continuously shaped planar metasurface.Under circularly polarized illumination,the scattering is redirected to off-specular direction,leading to significant reduction of the scattering cross section.Theoretical investigation shows that the underlying physical mechanism is the spin-dependent phase modulation in the anisotropic scattering process.Our approach would provide valuable guidance for the full control of electromagnetic wave for diverse applications.
