Color generation via subwavelength plasmonic nanostructures

Abstract

Recent developments in color filtering and display technologies have focused predominantly on high resolution, color vibrancy, high efficiency, and slim dimensions. To achieve these goals, metallic nanostructures have attracted extensive research interest due to their abilities to manipulate the properties of light through surface plasmon resonances. In this paper, we review recent representative developments in plasmonic color engineering at the nanoscale using subwavelength nanostructures, demonstrating their great potential in high-resolution and high-fidelity color rendering, spectral filtering applications, holography, three-dimensional stereoscopic imaging, etc.
