Abstract
Metasurfaces are nanopatterned structures of sub-wavelength thickness. Their effective refractive index and spectral characteristic can be tailored by material composition, intrinsic and extrinsic resonances, structure size, and ambient conditions. Consequently, they allow for phase, amplitude, polarisation, and spatial control of an optical field beyond what natural materials can offer. Dielectric metasurfaces with lower loss have opened a wide range of new applications such as enhanced imaging, structural colour, holography, and planar sensors. In particular, beam steering and control measures such as nonlinear optics, ultrafast optics, and quantum optics are of increasing importance for quantum communication, computation, and information processing. In this review, the recent progress on dielectric metasurfaces is summarised, including advanced fabrication technologies and novel applications from advanced wavefront shaping to quantum platforms. In addition, a perspective for the future development of the field is presented.
期刊介绍:
Progress in Surface Science publishes progress reports and review articles by invited authors of international stature. The papers are aimed at surface scientists and cover various aspects of surface science. Papers in the new section Progress Highlights, are more concise and general at the same time, and are aimed at all scientists. Because of the transdisciplinary nature of surface science, topics are chosen for their timeliness from across the wide spectrum of scientific and engineering subjects. The journal strives to promote the exchange of ideas between surface scientists in the various areas. Authors are encouraged to write articles that are of relevance and interest to both established surface scientists and newcomers in the field.
