摘要

Abstract

Intelligence at either the material or metamaterial level is a goal that researchers have been pursuing. From passive to active

metasurfaces have been developed to be programmable to dynamically and arbitrarily manipulate electromagnetic (EM) wavefields. However

the programmable metasurfaces require manual control to switch among different functionalities. Here

we put forth a smart metasurface that has self-adaptively reprogrammable functionalities without human participation. The smart metasurface is capable of sensing ambient environments by integrating an additional sensor(s) and can adaptively adjust its EM operational functionality through an unmanned sensing feedback system. As an illustrative example

we experimentally develop a motion-sensitive smart metasurface integrated with a three-axis gyroscope

which can adjust self-adaptively the EM radiation beams via different rotations of the metasurface. We develop an online feedback algorithm as the control software to make the smart metasurface achieve single-beam and multibeam steering and other dynamic reactions adaptively. The proposed metasurface is extendable to other physical sensors to detect the humidity

temperature

illuminating light

and so on. Our strategy will open up a new avenue for future unmanned devices that are consistent with the ambient environment.
