چکیده
We provide an experimental demonstration of novel form-birefringent computer-generated holograms at wavelengths of 1.55 and 10.6 microm. These novel devices utilize a 2-D array of cells that can be fabricated with a single lithographic step. Each cell contains a subwavelength binary grating whose orientation controls the desired continuous phase profile within the cell.

Dispersion-compensated meta-holograms based on detour phase
Subwavelength structured surfaces, known as metasurfaces, hold promise for future compact and optically thin devices with versatile functionalities. Here, by revisiting the concept of detour phase at the basis of the first computer generated holograms we have designed high-performance transmissive dielectric meta-holograms with new functionalities. In one class of such devices wavelength-indepe...
متن کاملOne of the most interesting typ
Recent years have witnessed a growing interest, theoretically as well as experimentally, in space-variant polarization manipulation for obtaining vectorial beams. In general, vectorial beams are defined as beams having space-variant (transversely nonuniform) polarization state. In this lecture we present new methods for designing, realizing and analyzing nonuniformly polarized and partial polar...
متن کاملHigh-order effective-medium theory of subwavelength gratings in classical mounting: application to volume holograms
We derive closed-form expressions for the effective index of subwavelength gratings up to the fourth and the second order for TE and TM polarization, respectively. These expressions are valid for arbitrary grating structures and are a generalization of previous results obtained for lamellar gratings with one groove per period (a structure often called a two-component layered medium). The effect...
متن کاملDesign, fabrication and characterization of subwavelength computer-generated holograms for spot array generation.
We report the analysis, design, fabrication and experimental characterization of novel subwavelength computer-generated holograms that produce uniform symmetric spot array. We distinguish between a polarization-sensitive and polarization-insensitive far-field reconstruction and show that a linearly polarized incident illumination is required in the former case in order to generate a symmetric r...
متن کاملGeneration of a radially polarized light beam using space-variant subwavelength gratings at 1064 nm.
The generation of radially polarized beams at a wavelength of 1064 nm by the use of a polarization transformer device consisting of space-variant subwavelength gratings (SGs) is demonstrated experimentally. The SG generates a pi phase retardation between the TE and TM polarizations, acting as a half-wave plate, reflecting the polarization vector with respect to the axes of the plate. The polari...
