Origami is the art of folding two-dimensional (2D) materials, such as a flat sheet paper, into complex and elaborate three-dimensional (3D) objects. This study reports origami-based metamaterials whose electromagnetic responses are dynamically controllable via switching state Miura-ori split-ring resonators. The deformation unit along third dimension induces net electric magnetic dipoles resonators parallel or anti-parallel to each other, leading strong chiral responses. Circular dichroism...

Spin-orbit coupling, a fundamental mechanism underlying topological insulators, has been introduced to construct the latter's photonic analogs, or insulators (PTIs). However, intrinsic lack of electronic spin in systems leads various imperfections emulating behaviors insulators. For example, recently demonstrated three-dimensional (3D) PTI, surface states emerge, not on single crystal as 3D insulator, but along an internal domain wall between two PTIs. Here, by fully abolishing spin-orbit we...
