Abstract

The first Kerker condition states that spectrally overlapped, and equal strength, electric and magnetic dipole modes will result in cancellation of the backscattered field. In this talk, I will outline how this effect, and related Kerker effects, can be harnessed in all-dielectric modulators and light sources. In the case of modulators this allows for high on-state transmission and large modulation depth. In absorbing metasurfaces this effect can be used to realize near-unity absorption leading to efficient thermal emitters.
