We report on the reciprocal spin Hall effect of light in T-shaped nanoaperture arrays. Specifically, we demonstrate that the information tied to surface plasmons trajectories can be encoded into free-space spin-carrying photons. The functionality of the system to act as a circular polarizer is therefore implemented in an interference eraser experiment where the device is used as a which-path marker. Complementarity between the wave-like and particle-like behavior of surface plasmons is verified, hence, further demonstrating the outlook for miniaturized optical elements toward on-chip quantum experiments. This work underscores the high potential of plasmonic devices in the realization of integrated polarization optics, hence, opening promising prospects for nanoscale optical communications and quantum photonic network.

基于光的反向自旋霍尔效应的全等离子径迹标记演示的干扰擦除实验

我们报告了光在T形纳米孔阵列中的倒数自旋霍尔效应。具体来说,我们证明了与表面等离激元轨迹相关的信息可以被编码成自由空间自旋携带的光子。因此,该系统用作圆偏振器的功能是在干涉消除实验中实现的,该装置被用作路径标记。验证了表面等离子体激元的波状和粒子状行为之​​间的互补性,因此进一步证明了微型光学元件在片上量子实验中的前景。这项工作强调了等离激元器件在实现集成偏振光学方面的巨大潜力,因此为纳米级光通信和量子光子网络打开了广阔的前景。
