Abstract

The invention discloses a method for generating a vector light beam based on a transmission-type medium metasurface, and belongs to the field of micro-nano optics. The method comprises the steps: selecting a noncrystalline silicon nanorod as a medium metasurface structure unit, carrying out the designing according to the geometric size of the nanorod, and enabling the nanorod to have a half wave plate function under the irradiation of light with the specific working wavelength; changing an azimuth angle of the nanorod unit and achieving the regulation and control of the polarization directionof an emergent optical field; obtaining the azimuth angle distribution of a nanorod array according to the polarization direction distribution of a target rod vector light beam, generating a processing file through coding, and carrying out the processing; and obtaining the target rod vector light beam after the incident polarization light passes through the medium metasurface. The invention also discloses a method for generating a vector light beam distributed in any polarization direction based on the transmission-type medium metasurface, and the method can be used for enabling a polarizationpattern to be hidden in the vector light beam, and is used for optical anti-fake occasions and polarization encryption occasions. The method can generate any vector light beam in a miniature and compact optical system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for generating an arbitrary vector beam, in particular to a method for generating a vector beam based on a transmissive medium metasurface, and belongs to the field of micro-nano optics. Background technique [0002] Metasurfaces are usually composed of a layer of subwavelength-sized metallic or dielectric nanoantenna arrays. Because of its ability to arbitrarily modulate the phase, amplitude and polarization of incident electromagnetic waves, it has attracted extensive attention from researchers. Compared with traditional optical elements that use the phase accumulation of light during propagation to regulate the light field, metasurfaces provide a new method to regulate the characteristics of the light field through the interaction of light and nanoantennas. By adjusting the shape, size and azimuth angle of the nano-antenna array, the wavefront of the incident light can be flexibly adjusted. [0003] The polarizati...
