Topology Optimized Multi-layered Meta-optics (1706.06715v1)

Abstract: We propose a general topology optimization framework for metasurface inverse design that can automatically discover highly complex multi-layered meta-structures with increased functionalities. In particular, we present topology-optimized multi-layered geometries exhibiting angular phase control, including a single-piece nanophotonic metalens with angular aberration correction as well as an angle-convergent metalens that focuses light onto the same focal spot regardless of the angle of incidence.
