This invention discloses a narrowband polarization metasurface for suppressing long-wave infrared angular dispersion and its fabrication method, relating to the field of optical component technology. Addressing the problems of difficult fabrication and strong angular dispersion inherent in existing polarizers, the metasurface of this invention comprises a barium fluoride substrate and a double-layer composite grating structure disposed on its surface. The composite grating includes a bottom arsenic selenide grating and a top metal layer. By limiting the period of the composite grating to 5.5-6.25 micrometers and the width of a single double-layer grating structure to 4.5-5.5 micrometers, the downward-leaking guided modes and Fabry-Perot cavity modes within the structure undergo strong compression in momentum space, resulting in band folding and anti-crossing flat-band effects. This invention not only relaxes the feature size to the micrometer level, significantly reducing fabrication difficulty, but also fundamentally suppresses the strong angular dispersion of plasmon resonance in narrowband, achieving a high polarization extinction ratio under large angle tolerance and greatly reducing the collimation requirements of practical optical paths.

The present application discloses a lossless magneto-optical switch and a wave plate angle adjustment method, belonging to the field of optics. A first polarization beam splitter decomposes parallel light into p-light and s-light. A first half-wave plate rotates the p-light 135° clockwise and the s-light 45° counterclockwise. A quarter-wave plate converts the change in the rotation angle of a Faraday rotator crystal into a phase delay change in polarized light. The Faraday rotator crystal applies magnetic fields in different directions to rotate the main optical path 45° clockwise or counterclockwise, simultaneously generating two weak optical paths. The full-wave plate reduces the phase delay change in polarized light and eliminates the angular dispersion of the Faraday rotator crystal. A second polarization beam splitter combines the two main optical paths and the two weak optical paths. When the optical channel is switched, both the strong light and the weak light are coupled into different channels. In the present application, the sum of the energies at the two output ends remains stable before and after the switching is completed. The quarter-wave plate and the full-wave plate solve the problem of optical crosstalk in optical transmission systems.
