In order to realize the function of subdiffraction focusing using a single flat lens, a special metalens is proposed to modulate the circularly polarized light. Initially, the analyses indicate that the phase shift can cover [0,2π] by changing the rotation angle of a quadrangular-frustum pyramid-shaped structure from 0° to 180°, while the average amplitude transmittance can reach 96% at the wavelength of λ=1550 nm. Then, a flat metalens is designed by carefully arranging the quadrangular-frustum pyramid-shaped structures. The simulated results show that a focal spot could be obtained at the focal length of about f=2.87λ, and the focusing efficiency is ∼14.9%. Meanwhile, the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the focusing spot is only 0.48λ, which is smaller than the diffraction limit. Furthermore, this designed metalens can function comparatively with a conventional lens in one-to-one imaging.
为了实现使用单个平面透镜的亚衍射聚焦功能,提出了一种特殊的超构透镜来调制圆偏振光。首先,分析表明,通过将四角台金字塔形结构的旋转角度从0°改变到180°,相移可以覆盖[0,2π],而在波长λ = 1550 nm时平均振幅透过率可以达到96%。然后,通过精心排列四角台金字塔形结构设计了一个平面超构透镜。模拟结果表明,在焦距约为f = 2.87λ处可以获得一个焦点,聚焦效率约为14.9%。同时,聚焦光斑的半高宽(FWHM)仅为0.48λ,小于衍射极限。此外,这种设计的超构透镜在一对一成像中可以与传统透镜相媲美。
