High-refractive-index dielectric metasurfaces give rise to unprecedented control of light manipulation, such as control of phase, polarization and amplitude, giving rise to interesting properties, such as directional beam steering, polarization detectors and sensors. Dielectric metasurfaces of sub-wavelength dimensions have tremendous applications in the field of optics, such as negative refractive index, cloaking, perfect absorbers and reflectors. The study of light–matter interactions in such materials has gained impetus due to the formation of novel states, such as anapoles, and transparent states obtained by interference between resonant electric, magnetic and higher-order modes. In this article, we investigate the light–matter interaction of an array of periodic dielectric metasurfaces made from high-refractive-index tellurium in cubic geometries and study its electromagnetic response as a function of the lattice constant, angle of incidence and angle of polarization. More specifically, we observe a non-resonant transparent state at 60.69 THz, which is independent of both the lattice constant and polarization of the input radiation. Moreover, this state shows high transmission for a broad range of incident angles with potential applications as optical filters. It also depends on the incident polarization, thus acting as a perfect polarization detector. Detailed investigations of scattering parameters, the spatial distribution of electric and magnetic fields in the near- and far-field regions and detailed multipole analysis are carried out to analyze the electromagnetic response of the metasurface.
