磁响应光调制具备远程无损控制、高精确度及高对比度响应等独特的优势，在制动器、智能窗、防伪、比色传感器等领域具有广阔的应用前景。与各向同性磁性纳米结构相比，各向异性磁性纳米结构(AMNs)利用磁偶极子、磁晶各向异性、形状各向异性和晶面之间的相互作用来控制不同维度的光传输，包括频率、振幅、偏振和等离子体共振，从而为广泛的功能应用提供了重要的价值。我们全面概述了基于AMN的光调制的最新发展，重点关注其新兴应用和设计策略。首先简要介绍典型的AMN构建单元，重点介绍了各种光调制模式，包括可调透射、衍射、偏振和等离子体共振。讨论了各种应用的设计策略，如智能窗户、防伪标签、比色传感器和多功能驱动设备。最后，总结了基于各向异性结构的磁光调制的挑战和前景。这篇综述提供了我们对AMN的构建单元、磁调制策略和光学特性调制的深入见解，有利于加速这些结构在功能器件中的实际应用。
原文摘要如下：Magnetically responsive optical modulation has emerged as a promising application in various fields such as smart windows, anti-counterfeiting, and colorimetric sensors, due to its unique advantages in remote and nondestructive control, as well as precise and high-contrast response. Compared to isotropic counterparts, anisotropic magnetic nanostructures (AMNs) take advantage of the interplay between magnetic dipoles, magnetocrystalline anisotropy, shape anisotropy, and crystal facets to control diverse dimensions of light propagation, including frequency, amplitude, polarization, and plasmonic resonance, thereby providing significant value to a wide range of functional applications. We present a comprehensive overview of recent development of optical modulation based on AMNs with focus on their emerging applications and design strategies. We start with a brief introduction of the typical AMN building blocks, highlighting various optical modulation modes, including tunable transmission, diffraction, polarization, and plasmonic resonance. The primary focus is to discuss design strategies for various applications, i.e., smart windows, anti-counterfeiting labels, colorimetric sensors, and multifunctional driven devices. We conclude with the challenges and perspectives for magneto-optical modulation based on anisotropic structures. Overall, this review provides in-depth insight into building blocks, magnetic modulation strategies, and optical property modulation of AMNs, thereby accelerating practical applications of these structures in functional devices.
