Abstract: The disclosure provides a self-biased magneto-optical non-reciprocal metasurface device. The device includes substrate layer and a sub-wavelength structure layer. The substrate layer is a material layer with a refractive index of 1 to 5 in a microwave frequency band. The sub-wavelength structure layer includes a plurality of square columnar elements arranged in a matrix period with equal period in row and column directions. The square columnar elements include magneto-optical material. The adjustment of phase and amplitude of a circularly polarized electromagnetic wave is achieved by changing the length, width and height of the square columnar elements, and thus the device attains a desired isolation and insertion loss at a center frequency f0. The parameters of the magneto-optical material are: coercivity Hc?1000 A/m; remanence Br?1 kGs; a voigt parameter of a permittivity tensor or permeability tensor in a working frequency band?0.01.

Abstract: A lidar system, including: a laser, an optical detector, a laser antenna, and a silicon-based integrated magneto-optical circulator. The silicon-based integrated magneto-optical circulator includes a silicon-based integrated Mach-Zehnder interference structure or a silicon-based integrated micro-ring structure, and silicon-based integrated magneto-optical waveguides. The silicon-based integrated magneto-optical circulator further includes an input port, a receiving port, and an emission port. The laser is aligned and coupled to the input port of the silicon-based integrated magneto-optical circulator via an optical fiber, a grating coupler, or an edge coupler. The optical detector is aligned and coupled to the receiving port of the silicon-based integrated magneto-optical circulator via the optical fiber, the grating coupler, or the edge coupler.
