However,\u0000whether the Brewster effect of surface waves can be implemented without the\u0000involvement of negative-permittivity or negative-permeability materials remains\u0000elusive. This is due to the formidable challenge to fully suppress both the\u0000parasitic scattering into propagating waves and the reflection into surface\u0000waves under the incidence of surface waves. Here, we reveal a feasible route to\u0000achieve scattering-free plasmonic Brewster effect via isotropic metasurfaces,\u0000along with the usage of positive-permittivity and positive-permeability\u0000metamaterials with both anisotropic and magnetic responses. In essence, the\u0000anisotropic response of metamaterials is judiciously designed to fully suppress\u0000the parasitic scattering into propagating waves, while the magnetic response of\u0000metamaterials facilitates the full suppression of the reflection into surface\u0000waves supported by metasurfaces.
