Recent development in nonlocal resonance based chiral metasurfaces draws great attention due to their abilities to strongly interact with circularly polarized light at a relatively narrow spectral bandwidth. However, there still remain challenges in realizing effective nonlocal chiral metasurfaces in optical frequency due to demanding fabrications such as 3D-multilayered or nanoscaled chiral geometry, which, in particular, limit their applications to polarimetric detection with high-Q spectra. Here, we study the underlying working principles and reveal the important role of the interaction between high-Q nonlocal resonance and low-Q localized Mie resonance in realizing effective nonlocal chiral metasurfaces. Based on the working principles, we demonstrate one of the simplest types of nonlocal chiral metasurfaces which directly detects a set of Stokes parameters without the numerical combination of transmitted values presented from typical Stokes metasurfaces. This is achieved by minimally altering the geometry and filling ratio of every constituent nanostructure in a unit cell, facilitating consistent-sized nanolithography for all samples experimentally at a targeted wavelength with relatively high-Q spectra. This work provides an alternative design rule to realizing effective polarimetric metasurfaces and the potential applications of nonlocal Stokes parameters detection.
