Bound States in the Continuum in Magnetophotonic Metasurfaces

Abstract

We analyze the enhancement mechanisms of magneto-optical effects in all-dielectric metasurfaces caused by the bound state in the continuum resonance. In a structure under study, a square lattice of bismuth substituted yttrium iron garnet nanodisks with an air hole displaced away from the disk axis, magneto-optical polarization and intensity effects reach 0.7° and 22%, respectively.
