Abstract

Photonic skyrmions have been a hot topic in recent years. However, modulating the spin distributions of the skyrmions is still a challenging topic. In this paper, we investigate the detailed spin distributions of photonic skyrmions in thin metal film sandwiched by different dielectrics. We find that the ratios of different spin components can be adjusted by the thickness of the metal film, while the absolute value of total spin can be controlled by the frequency of the light source. Therefore, by choosing proper metal thickness in the preparation process and certain beam frequency in actual experiment, we can get the exact type of spin distribution we prefer. In addition, when the dielectric layers are arranged asymmetrically, the spin distributions can also be modulated significantly by adjustig the ratio of the dielectric constants of the upper and lower dielectric layers. Our results provide a new pathway for the modulation of photonic skyrmions.
