[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the technical solutions of this invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this invention.

[0024] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a superpixel design method based on cascaded superatoms provided by the present invention.

[0025] This invention provides a superpixel design method based on cascaded superatoms, comprising: 101: Determine the Jones matrix of the simulated superatom based on the preset superatom simulation method.

[0026] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the rectangular cylindrical superatom provided by the present invention.

[0027] In this embodiment, a polarization-dependent rectangular cylindrical superatom is used. The finite-difference time-domain method is employed to simulate the horizontal and vertical polarization responses of superatoms of different sizes, obtaining the two diagonal elements of the Jones matrix of the simulated superatom, which are complex numbers with an absolute value of 1. The Jones matrix of the simulated superatom satisfies the following relationship: , in, J Rect The Jones matrix is ​​used to simulate superatoms.

[0028] After obtaining a certain number of Jones matrices for simulated superatoms, they can be screened according to the following principles: The height of superatoms on the same metasurface must be the same, and their width and length must meet the process requirements of the hyperplane to ensure the process feasibility of the hyperplane design.

[0029] Meanwhile, considering that the structure of the rectangular column superatoms is parallel to the polarization direction during simulation, but may need to be rotated when actually spliced ​​into a hyperplane, the diagonal length of the structure of the rectangular column superatoms is set to be less than the arrangement spacing of the rectangular column superatoms on the hyperplane. This can filter out rectangular column superatoms with diagonal lengths less than the arrangement spacing, thereby avoiding conflicts that may occur when arranging them if the diagonal is too large.

[0030] Transmittance of horizontal and vertical polarization and All are greater than the preset transmittance threshold, and the phase modulation amounts of horizontal and vertical polarization are also greater than the preset transmittance threshold. and Cover as much as possible All values.

[0031] After the above screening, the obtained superatoms are used as a set of raw data and then processed.

[0032] To facilitate subsequent processing, a special rectangular pillar, called HWP, is selected from the simulation dataset. The phase modulation of its horizontal and vertical polarization inputs is exactly different. That is, the Jones matrix can be written as: , in, J Rect,HWP To simulate the Jones matrix of superatoms in HWP, The horizontal polarization phase modulation of superatoms is simulated for HWP.

[0033] 102: Based on the preset superpixel design forward algorithm, perform forward calculation on the Jones matrix of the simulated superatoms to determine the forward superatom matrix and the forward superpixel matrix; the forward superatom matrix is ​​the Jones matrix of the cascaded superatoms obtained by forward calculation, and the forward superpixel matrix is ​​the Jones matrix of the superpixels obtained by forward calculation; the superpixel includes several cascaded superatoms.

[0034] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the rotating rectangular cylindrical superatom provided by the present invention.

[0035] In this embodiment, for rotation within a plane The rectangular prism placed at the corner (first simulated superatom) satisfies the following relationship in its Jones matrix: Please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the bilayer cascaded superatoms provided by the present invention.

[0036] As a preferred embodiment, the forward superatomic matrix satisfies the following relation: , in, J DR It is a forward two-layer cascaded superatomic matrix. J RR The Jones matrix for the first simulated superatom. The Jones matrix for the second simulated superatom. The phase modulation amount for the horizontal polarization of the first simulated superatom. This represents the phase modulation amount for the vertical polarization of the first simulated superatom. The rotation angle of the first simulated superatom. The rotation angle of the second simulated superatom. The phase modulation amount for the horizontal polarization of the second simulated superatom. This represents the phase modulation amount of the vertical polarization of the second simulated superatom.

[0037] In one preferred embodiment, the superpixel comprises a plurality of bilayer cascaded superatoms.

[0038] The Jones matrix for a two-layer cascaded superatom is: J DR The Jones matrix of the first simulated superatom can be used. J RR Jones matrix of the second simulated superatom The product is obtained by forward calculation.

[0039] Please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of a combined superpixel composed of cascaded superatoms provided by the present invention.

[0040] In a preferred embodiment, the forward superpixel matrix satisfies the following relationship: , in, J total For positive superpixel matrix, N 2 This represents the number of superatoms in a superpixel. i For the selected number i One superatom, J DR,i For the selected number i A forward superatomic matrix of superatoms. N It is a positive integer not less than 2.

[0041] for N × N The structure composed of two-layer cascaded superatoms can be considered as a whole, that is, the final superpixel; for N Forward superpixel matrix in the case of =2 J total This can be calculated by averaging the values ​​of each positive superatomic matrix. N It is a positive integer not less than 2, and follows N Increasing the value improves the design effect of the hyperplane, but it also makes the superpixel size larger and the resolution lower. Therefore, N The quantity should be set according to actual needs.

[0042] Of course, a superpixel can include several multi-layer cascaded superatoms, such as three-layer cascaded superatoms, but this invention does not make any particular limitation.

[0043] 103: Determine the spatial superpixel matrix according to the preset hyperplane design requirements; the spatial superpixel matrix is ​​a Jones matrix based on the spatial position relationship of the superpixels.

[0044] In this embodiment, the spatial superpixel matrix distribution is determined by the desired metasurface functionality. For lenses and polarizing beam splitters, the spatial superpixel matrix distribution is directly given by formulas; for holograms, the spatial superpixel matrix distribution needs to be generated by an iterative algorithm in conjunction with Fourier optics; for more complex multi-channel functional metasurfaces, the spatial superpixel matrix distribution is also given by a specific algorithm, where each element takes the value of a complex number.

[0045] It can be seen that the spatial superpixel matrix is ​​not a fixed matrix, but rather depends on the spatial location ( x , y The function is discretized by combining the superpixel size, making the entire metasurface a function of... M Composed of several different superpixels, corresponding to M A fixed spatial superpixel matrix. Where the first... m The spatial superpixel matrix satisfies the following relationship: for M Given a fixed spatial superpixel matrix, we search for suitable superpixel structures one by one. The following discussion uses any single superpixel as an example; the same logic applies to other superpixels. Therefore, the subscripts... m Omit.

[0046] First, the spatial superpixel matrix is ​​decomposed into the sum of two matrices, such that the absolute value of each element in each matrix is ​​1 / 2.

[0047] in: Note that this decomposition method requires , B , C , D The decomposition method and conditions are similar. This condition can be applied to... By reducing the size by a constant factor, the functionality remains unaffected, only introducing some overhead. (The above is taken as an example.) N =2, meaning each superpixel contains 4 cascaded superatoms.

[0048] 104: Based on the preset superpixel design reverse algorithm, the spatial superpixel matrix is ​​reverse calculated to obtain the reverse superatomic matrix; the reverse superatomic matrix is ​​the Jones matrix of the cascaded superatoms obtained by reverse calculation.

[0049] As a preferred embodiment, the inverse superatomic matrix satisfies the following relation: , in, J DR,1 The inverse superatom matrix of the first selected superatom. J DR,2 This is the inverse superatomic matrix of the second superatom. J DR,3 This is the inverse superatomic matrix of the third superatom. J DR,4 This is the inverse superatomic matrix of the 4th superatom. and The design parameters for the inverse superatom matrix of the first selected superatom. and The design parameters for the inverse superatom matrix of the selected second superatom. and The design parameters for the inverse superatom matrix of the selected third superatom. and The design parameters are for the inverse superatom matrix of the selected fourth superatom.

[0050] 105: Under the condition of meeting the verification conditions, determine the design parameters of the superpixel based on the forward superatomic matrix and the inverse superatomic matrix; the verification condition is that the calculation results based on the forward superpixel matrix and the inverse superatomic matrix are consistent with the spatial superpixel matrix.

[0051] Based on the forward superpixel matrix J total The calculation is performed with the inverse superatomic matrix, and the result is exactly the same as the spatial superpixel matrix. J target Consistent (verification conditions).

[0052] Next, we will discuss each cascaded superatom individually. J DR,i The implementation of. For J DR,1 ( J DR,3 Similarly), in the forward superatomic matrix J DR Winning = =0: It can be seen that the cascaded superatoms J DR,1 The two rectangular pillars at the top and bottom do not need to be rotated; they only need to meet the design parameters. This is easily achieved because the superatomic data in the simulation is abundant enough. For example, it can be directly set... , (Superpixel design parameters). A more accurate solution can also be selected based on the actual data distribution.

[0053] for J DR,2 ( J DR,4 Similarly), in the forward superatomic matrix J DR Winning : Let cascaded superatoms be formed J DR,2 The upper superatoms are the aforementioned HWP, which will Replace with We can obtain: It can be seen that the cascaded superatoms J DR,2 The upper superatoms must satisfy: Select the superatom that best matches these parameters from the simulation data. At this point, the entire 2×2 superpixel structure is determined. It should be noted that there is no single way to combine 2×2 double-layer cascaded superatoms to construct a superpixel; this is merely a general and concise reverse design method.

The superpixel design system based on cascaded superatoms described below can be referred to in correspondence with the superpixel design method based on cascaded superatoms described above.
