Problems solved by technology

Based on the resonance effect of subwavelength nanostructure units, metalenses can achieve achromatic focusing of incident light of different wavelengths, and have the advantages of small size, light weight, and easy integration; however, in the design process, the nanostructure array needs to be A large number of configurations and simulations, the design is complex, the calculation is large, and the production efficiency is low
On the other hand, since the metalens adopts the equivalent continuous principle, there is inevitably a scattering effect, which reduces the achromatic focusing efficiency; in addition, most metalenses use anisotropic structural units, which are sensitive to the polarization of the incident light. Further reducing its scope of application
Not only that, in terms of processing and preparation, the sub-wavelength fine structure (large aspect ratio) of the achromatic meta-lens requires high-precision micro-nano preparation processes such as electron beam exposure and atomic layer deposition. The processing cycle is long, the process is complicated, and the price is expensive. , cannot be prepared in a large size, and cannot be applied to large-scale production so far

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of optical lenses, in particular to a design and preparation method of an achromatic microlens with a large focal depth. Background technique [0002] Optical lenses are widely used in modern human life, and can be used in mobile phones, cameras, microscopes, lithography machines, etc. However, traditional optical spherical lenses face a series of problems such as spherical aberration, coma, astigmatism, and chromatic aberration. In particular, the existence of chromatic aberration will seriously reduce the image quality. In order to achieve achromatic focusing, traditional achromatic lenses are often only aimed at several fixed wavelengths, and the lens group is constructed by using multiple lenses, which is not only large in size, heavy in weight, and limited in application scenarios, but also cannot achieve continuous achromatic chromatic aberration. [0003] In recent years, the emergence of achromati...
