Plasmonic Nano‐Rotamers with Programmable Polarization‐Resolved Coloration

Abstract 3D‐shaped artificial Mg nano‐rotamers with a programmable dihedral angle between two plasmonic arms, designed to exhibit both programmable linear and circular polarization properties, are presented. The nanoscale physical shadow growth technique offers precise control over the angular alignment in these nanostructures with 1° angular precision, thus controlling their symmetry from achiral C_2v and C_2h to chiral C₂. As a result, they give rise to a wide range of polarization‐resolved coloration, spanning from invisible to visible colors with 46% transmission contrast for linear polarization while exhibiting 0.08 g‐factor in visible for circular polarization. These nano‐rotamers hold great potential for various applications in adaptive photonic filters, memory, and anticounterfeiting devices, benefiting from their tunable plasmonic properties.
