All-Dielectric Metasurface Lenses for Achromatic Imaging Applications

Abstract

Metasurface can use artificial microstructures to manipulate electromagnetic waves more accurately and flexibly. All-dielectric metalens have a wide range of materials and low cost so it has a wide application prospect. Herein, we propose a all-dielectric achromatic metalens built with Si as the structural unit that can operate over a broadband of wavelengths in the visible region. It controls the wavefront of light through the Pancharatnam–Berry phase and propagation phase to eliminate the chromatic aberration. Meanwhile, we also use Gerchberg–Saxton algorithm and its improved algorithm to iterate over multiple design wavelengths and obtain holographic phases suitable for broadband. Thus, both the metalenses and holographic metasurfaces can achieve achromatic broadband in the visible light range, which provides a new method for the development of meta-optical imaging devices.
