Metaoptics
Abstract
Metasurfaces based on sub-wavelength patterning have major potential for arbitrary control of the wavefront of light by achieving local control of the phase, amplitude and polarization and allowing greater functionality and more compact devices. High performance metalenses for the visible, achromatic lenses, axicons, vortex plates, holograms, ultracompact spectrometers and polarimeters will be discussed along with the potential of this technology for a wide range of applications.
