Symmetry, Vol. 10, Pages 423: Tunable Control of Mie Resonances Based on Hybrid VO2 and Dielectric Metamaterial Symmetry doi: 10.3390/sym10100423 Authors: Ju Gao Kuang Zhang Guohui Yang Sungtek Kahng Qun Wu In this paper, a tunable dielectric metamaterial absorber with temperature-based vanadium dioxide (VO2) is proposed. In contrast to previous studies, both the metal phase of VO2 and the semiconductor phase are applied to manipulate the Mie resonant modes in the dielectric cubes. By embedding VO2 in the main resonant structure, the control over Mie resonant modes in dielectric metamaterials is realized. Each resonant mode is analyzed through field distribution and explains why the phase switch of VO2 could affect the absorbance spectrum. This use of tunable materials could create another new methodology for the manipulation of the Mie resonance-based dielectric cubes and make them closer in essence to isotropic metamaterials.
