    Figures & Tables(8)
    Structure of metasurfaces. (a) P-B metasurface; (b) Transmission metasurface; (c)-(d) The phase shift and transmission amplitude vary with cylinder diameter, when the metasurfaces use SiO2 as substrate, TiO2 as nanoantennas in (c) and Si3N4 as nanoantennas in (d). The p is 0.42 μm and the H is 1.0 μm
    Transmission amplitude and phase shift of the transmitted light through Si3N4 metasurfaces with different D, p and H (Metasurfaces use cylindrical nanoantennas)
    Metasurface using Si3N4 nanoantennas. (a) Maximum duty cycle of cylindrical nanoantennas; (b) Maximum duty cycle of square post nanoantennas; (c)-(d) Correspondence between phase shift and side length of square posts when p is 0.47 μm and 0.48 μm
    Metasurfaces simulation with different focal length. (a) Square post antenna arrangement of metasurfaces; (b) Schematic diagram of metasurfaces focusing; (c) Electric field distribution in xz plane of metasurfaces with different focal lengths; (d) Electric field distribution in xy plane of metasurfaces with different focal lengths
    Simulation results of metasurfaces with different focal lengths. (a) Focusing spot size changes with f/Dm; (b) Transmittance and focusing efficiency of metasurfaces with different focal lengths; (c) The deviation between actual focal length and theoretical focal length; (d) When the theoretical focal length is 200 μm, the focal length of the metasurfaces changes with the aperture
    Analysis of dispersion characteristics of metasurfaces. (a) MTF at different bandwidths of metasurfaces with a focal length of 100 μm; (b) The focal length of the metasurfaces varies with the central wavelength of the incident light
