Abstract

The invention discloses a method for achieving wavefront modulation based on a dielectric conformal metasurface, and belongs to the technical field of micro-nano optics and holography. The implementation method comprises the following steps of designing a unit structure of the metasurface, wherein the metasurface is composed of dielectric circular nanopillar arrays with different geometric sizes,and by changing the geometric radius and height of a nanopillar unit, the phase of an emergent light beam is randomly adjusted and controlled by the metasurface; when a single curved surface is considered only, calculating out phase distribution phi 0 of incident light passing the curved surface according to a ray tracing method or a finite-different time-domain (FDTD) method, and then calculatingout phase distribution phi d of user-customized functions according to a diffraction theory or a holographic principle analysis method, thereby compensating a phase difference phi p of the two by using the dielectric conformal metasurface; and carrying out coding on the phase of the metasurface. The user-customized functions include lens focusing, adjustable abnormal refraction, optical camouflage and illusion functions. According to the method, the corresponding technical problems in the field of wearable electronic products, medical equipment or photoelectric devices can be solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an optical modulation method, in particular to a method for modulating the wavefront of an arbitrary curved surface object based on a medium conformal metasurface to realize the optical characteristics of user-customized functions, and belongs to the field of micro-nano optics and holography. The optical properties of the user-customizable functions include lens focus, adjustable anomalous refraction, cloaking and phantom. Background technique [0002] Metasurfaces, a new subcategory of 2D metamaterials, consist of periodic, quasi-periodic, or randomly distributed subwavelength metal / dielectric antennas that can locally modify the amplitude, phase, and polarization of electromagnetic waves. Compared with conventional optical devices (such as spatial light modulators and diffractive optical elements), the modulation of the wavefront by metasurfaces does not depend on the phase accumulation of the propagation path. Metasurfaces ...
