Metasurface-based lenses (metalenses) offer specific conceptual advantages compared to ordinary refractive lenses. For example, it is possible to tune the focal length of a metalens doublet by varying the relative angle between the two…
Conventional metalenses control light by varying meta-atom geometry, a design strategy that inherently couples phase modulation to structural dimensions and exacerbates chromatic dispersion. Here, we break this paradigm by decoupling phase…
