Design of All-Dielectric Long-wave infrared Wide-angle Metalens

Abstract

Abstract Optical metasurfaces are two-dimensional arrays of nano-scatterers that modify optical wavefronts at subwavelength spatial resolution. They achieve the effect of focusing through phase control under a sub-wavelength scale, named metalens. They are poised to revolutionize optics by enabling complex low-cost systems. However, there are monochromatic severe aberrations in the metasurfaces. In this paper,the long-wave infrared optical system coma is eliminated through a single-layer metasurface. By changing the phase function,this metalens have a numerical aperture of 0.89,a focal length of 150 μm,and a field of view of 120° (0.4@60lp/mm) that enables diffraction-limited monochromatic imaging along the focal plane at a wavelength of 10.6μm. And the designed metasurface maintains a favorable MTF value at different angles. This equipment can be widely used in imaging and industrial processing.
