摘要
Manipulating directional electromagnetic scattering plays a crucial role in the realization of exotic optical phenomenon.Here,we show that the spoof plasmonic structure is able to achieve the switching of directional scattering direction on a subwavelength scale by inserting a perfect electric conductor(PEC)cylinder into the hollow of the spoof plasmonic structure.Based on the modal analysis,it is found that the electromagnetic response of the core-shell structure not only is well excited,but also exhibits the directional scattering by interference between the electric and magnetic dipolar resonances.We also discuss the influence of PEC cylinder radius on the performance of the directional scattering.Finally,the active tunable directional scattering is realized by switching between the two states.This work provides a feasible pathway to the subwavelength manipulation of electromagnetic wave.Moreover,it offers a simple method to switch the directional scattering direction.The proposed design approach can be easily applied to digital electromagnetic wave communication and associated applications.
