Intensity controlled and multi-multiplexed full-space achromatic metalens and modulated orbital angular momentum.

The Fabry-Perot (F-P) interference model was used to make a 6-layer metasurface with cross-polarization that can be changed by heat. The fundamental concept behind the metasurface is to utilize the selectivity of linearly polarized waves by a metal grating to achieve broadband and efficient polarized conversion (PC). It also uses the thermal conversion properties of vanadium dioxide (VO) to control the amplitude of terahertz (THz) waves in a dynamic way. While achromatic metalenses have been extensively studied, altering the entire spatial incidence angle remains relatively uncommon. Enter modulated orbital angular momentum (MOAM), a promising approach for applications such as holographic encryption, optical communication, and imaging. However, achieving MOAM multidimensional multiplexing has proven to be a significant challenge. In response to this challenge, we have integrated the transmission phase into the metasurface design. This new idea makes it possible to make a full spatially achromatic metalenses with angular multiplexing and makes MOAM multidimensional multiplexing easier by letting you switch between frequency, angle, and MOAM modes. This pioneering approach unveils new prospects for enhancing the capacity, rate, and quality of information exchange in domains such as optical encryption, optical imaging, optical communication, and other related technological fields.
