Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of optics, in particular to a cross polarization conversion optical device and a design method thereof. Background technique [0002] Polarization is an important characteristic of electromagnetic waves, which carries important information during the propagation and detection of electromagnetic waves. The cross polarization conversion device (CPC) can rotate the polarization state of the incident light wave by 90 degrees, so that the polarization directions of the outgoing light wave and the incident light wave are perpendicular to each other. Traditional CPCs are generally designed based on the characteristics of the material itself, such as crystal-based birefringence and total internal reflection. However, the operating bandwidth of this device is narrow, and the conversion effect is not good enough. Metasurface structure refers to artificial layered materials with a thickness smaller than the wavelength, which c...
