Asymmetric photonic spin-orbit interactions in metasurfaces
Same as the electron, the photon also carries spin an-gular momentum (SAM) and orbital angular momentum (OAM). OAM beams have many applications in the field of classical and quantum optics, such as optical and quantum communications, particle manipulation, su-per-resolution imaging, and so forth. Traditional ele-ments for optical OAM generation are bulky and heavy, and have no spin-orbit interactions (SOIs). The metasurfaces based on geometric phase allow symmet-ric SOIs, however, the symmetry limits the applications of SOIs.
