Abstract
Phase transition of scattered light
Disordered structures can give rise to intriguing scattering phenomena owing to the unpredictable nature of their interaction with light. Using subwavelength-scale disordered metasurfaces, Maguid
et al.
observed a phase transition in how the light is scattered as a function of disorder. Weak disorder induced a photonic spin Hall effect, whereas strong disorder led to spin-split modes in momentum space, a random optical-Rashba effect. Thus, designed photonic structure could offer a versatile platform to study similar phenomena in complex solid-state systems.
