Semiconductor Metasurfaces, Part 1.

This book explores the advanced field of metasurfaces, focusing on their tunable nature enabled by phase-change materials (PCMs) and other innovative materials. It covers the integration of PCMs with metasurfaces, highlighting their ability to dynamically manipulate light properties such as amplitud...
