Embodiment Construction

[0028] The present invention will be further described below with specific embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0029] In recent years, metasurface materials have given people more room for the development of precise manipulation of light-wave electromagnetic fields. Metasurface material is a two-dimensional metamaterial, that is, a periodic micro-nano structure is depicted on the surface of optical materials. This kind of micro-nano structure has a special control effect on the incident light wave, which can be equivalent to an anisotropic material that can be changed point by point, ultra-large (>10), ultra-small (~0), negative (<0) refractive index materials, Thereby precisely manipulating the electromagnetic field of incident light waves.

[0030] The anisotropy of the metasurface material means that it is sensitive to the polarization state of the incident wave. Further studies have shown that the optimally designed metasurface material nanobrick...

Abstract

The invention provides a dual zooming lens based on polarization state control. A polarizer, a quarter-wave plate, a first lens and a second lens are successively arranged in the forward direction of light, the first lens and the second lens employ planar nanometer brick lenses composed of nanometer brick arrays, the dimension of each nanometer brick in the nanometer brick arrays is the same, the center interval between adjacent nanometer bricks is the same, the corners of the nanometer bricks are determined according to the distance from the center of the lens. The dual zooming lens is characterized in that focal length values of two nanometer brick meta-material structured lenses can be changed to opposite numbers of original focal length values simply by changing the rotation direction of rotatory polarization of the nanometer brick meta-material structured lenses (i.e., rotating the quarter-wave plate by 90 degrees), and thus a zooming function of a combined lens is realized. The dual zooming lens with polarization control has the advantages of simple zooming, small volume, light weight, high integration, batch copy and the like, thereby can be widely applied to such fields as photon integration, laser processing and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the fields of micro-nano optics and polarization optics, in particular to a dual-speed zoom lens based on polarization state control. Background technique [0002] Double-speed and even multi-speed zoom lenses have important applications in many fields. For example, in the field of mid-wave infrared imaging, it is necessary to realize the discovery of large field of view targets (short focus case) and the recognition of small field of view targets (telephoto case) without changing the lens back intercept (no focus adjustment). Another example is in the field of laser processing, it is necessary to focus the same laser beam into light spots of different sizes under different working conditions, so a zoom lens is required, or a fixed-focus lens with a different focal length is required to achieve this. The method of traditional lens zooming is: by optimizing the structural design of the optical system, moving the zoom lens group...
