Inconsistencies of metalens performance and comparison with conventional diffractive optics

Optics 2024-09-24 v1

Abstract

We posit that inconsistent interpretations of experimental data have led to inaccurate claims on metalens focusing efficiencies. By performing a meta-analysis,we show that extraordinary claims of high focusing efficiency at high numerical apertures are, unfortunately, not yet backed by rigorous simulation or experimental results. In this document, we have included the original comment and supplement, as well as the revised versions that correct the errors found in the original.
