SignificanceAchieving directional radiation and scattering of light with minimal optical structures is crucial to many applications in nanophotonics and quantum optics. We propose and experimentally realize a directional dipole dice by the synergy of chirality and anisotropy, which enables complete and switchable manipulation of light’s propagation direction via activating different “faces” of the dice based on three degrees of freedom: spin, power flow, and reactive power. This opens numerous possibilities for realizing face-multiplexed and high-dimensional light routing with a single meta-atom or metasurface, which can facilitate the design of compact and multifunctioned directional optical sources and switches. The mechanism can also be extended to other classical waves such as sound waves.
