Optical metasurfaces for polarization-controlled beam shaping.
We have developed multifunctional optical beam shapers based on plasmonic metasurfaces. The metasurfaces are composed of subwavelength-spaced polarization- and wavelength-selective optical nanoantennas that allow encoding several beam shapers on a single element. We demonstrate numerically and experimentally beam shapers that can be used to switch between arbitrary beam shapes. We specifically ...
متن کاملFocus shaping of Bessel–Gauss beam with radial varying polarization
Focusing properties of Bessel–Gauss beam with radial varying polarization are investigated based on vector diffraction theory in this article. The polarization angle formed by polarization direction and radial coordinate is the function of the radial distance in pupil plane, and one polarization parameter indicates the speed of change of polarization angle. It was found that the intensity distr...
متن کاملDiffraction of the Gaussian Beam on Layered Lens and Similar a Conical and Diffraction Axicons
In this paper we consider the possibility of replacing the diffraction axicon and the conical axicon on the gradient lens with a linear variation of the refractive index. Analytically and numerically using the finite-difference timedomain method we performed a comparative study of the Gaussian beam diffraction on diffraction mikro-axicon, conical axicon and gradient microlens consisting of subw...
متن کاملMeta-q-plate for complex beam shaping
Optical beam shaping plays a key role in optics and photonics. In this work, meta-q-plate featured by arbitrarily space-variant optical axes is proposed and demonstrated via liquid crystal photoalignment based on a polarization-sensitive alignment agent and a dynamic micro-lithography system. Meta-q-plates with multiple-, azimuthally/radially variant topological charges and initial azimuthal an...
متن کاملPolarization selective beam shaping using nanoscale dielectric metasurfaces.
Metasurfaces consisting of ultrathin nanostructures are utilized to control the properties of light including its phase, amplitude and polarization. Hereby, we demonstrate the capability of such structures to perform arbitrary polarization selective beam shaping using dielectric nanoscale metasurfaces implemented in silicon. By illuminating the structure with right handed circular polarization ...
