Metalenses are instruments that manipulate waves and have exhibited remarkable capabilities to date. However, an important hurdle arises due to the severe hampering of the angular response originating from coma and field curvature aberrations, which result in a loss of focusing ability. Herein, we provide a blueprint by introducing the notion of a wide field-of-hearing (FOH) metalens, designed particularly for capturing and focusing sound with decreased aberrations.

Therefore, they can be used to realize various optical components. In particular, metasurfaces can be used to realize lenses, so-called metalenses.
