Metasurfaces with switchable spin–orbit interactions (SOIs) offer an appealing platform for dynamic and reconfigurable beam manipulation. In article number 1800835 , Xiangang Luo and co‐workers demonstrate switchable SOIs experimentally via the combination of plasmonic metasurfaces with phase change materials (PCMs). The metadevices with switchable SOIs provide a promising route to achieve reconfigurable applications such as encrypted optical communications and dynamic holographic displays.
