The design of compact optical systems with large field of view has been difficult due to the requirement of many elements or a curved focal plane to reduce off-axis aberration. We propose a multi-aperture lens design to effectively resolve these issues. Metagrating-based deflectors are placed near entrance pupils of multi-aperture lens array to enhance field of view. A systematic design method is given in details. In design examples, a $pm$80$^circ$ field of view using only two planar optical elements is achieved. Also, the system is extremely compact with total track lengths an order of magnitude smaller than conventional fish-eye lenses, while the imaging performance is comparable with conventional designs.

In this paper, we report two new kinds of absolute optical instruments that can make stigmatically images for geometric optics in two dimensional space. One is called the duplex Mikaelian lens, which is made by splicing two half Mikaelian lenses with
different periods. The other is exponential conformal transformer of duplex Mikaelian lens with the ratio of different periods of its two half Mikaelian lenses a rational number, which we call duplex Maxwells fish eye lens. Duplex Mikaelian lenses have continuous translation symmetry with arbitrary real number, while duplex Maxwells fish eye lenses have continuous rotational symmetry from 0 to 2*Pi. Hence each duplex Maxwells fish eye lens corresponds to a duplex Mikaelian lens. We further demonstrate the caustic effect of geometric optics in duplex Mikaelian lenses and duplex Maxwells fish eye lenses. In addition, we investigate the Talbot effect of wave optics in the duplex Mikaelian lens based on numeric calculations. Our findings based on splicing and exponential conformal mapping enlarge the family of absolute optical instruments.
One of the important advantages of optical metasurfaces over conventional diffractive optical elements is their capability to efficiently deflect light by large angles. However, metasurfaces are conventionally designed using approaches that are optim
al for small deflection angles and their performance for designing high numerical aperture devices is not well quantified. Here we introduce and apply a technique for the estimation of the efficiency of high numerical aperture metasurfaces. The technique is based on a particular coherent averaging of diffraction coefficients of periodic blazed gratings and can be used to compare the performance of different metasurface designs in implementing high numerical aperture devices. Unlike optimization-based methods that rely on full-wave simulations and are only practicable in designing small metasurfaces, the gradient averaging technique allows for the design of arbitrarily large metasurfaces. Using this technique, we identify an unconventional metasurface design and experimentally demonstrate a metalens with a numerical aperture of 0.78 and a measured focusing efficiency of 77%. The grating averaging is a versatile technique applicable to many types of gradient metasurfaces, thus enabling highly efficient metasurface components and systems.
The conventional lenss tunability drawback always restricts their application compared to the metasurface lens (metalens). On the other side, reconfigurable metalenses offer the benefits of ultrathin thickness and capable of tunability. Therefore ach
ieving reconfigurable functionalities in a single metasurface has attracted significant research interest for potential terahertz (THz) applications. In this paper, an adjustable metasurface is presented using Vanadium dioxide (VO2) to manipulate the electromagnetic waves and provide the full reflection phase. The phase-change metasurface is composed of a VO2 nanofilm, a silicon spacer, and a gold layer embedded in the structures bottom. By employing the reconfigurable metasurface with the specific phase distribution, the incident beam can converge to determined points in any arbitrary manner, including the number of the focal points, focal points location, and power intensity ratio. Numerical simulations demonstrate that the proposed reconfigurable metasurface can concentrate power on one or more than one focal point in reflection modes as expected. Additionally, the VO2-based metasurface can control concentration width in a real-time manner using a novel proposed method. The simulation and theoretical results are in good agreement to verify the validity and feasibility of 2-bit metalens design, which has considerable potential in wireless high-speed communication and super-resolution imaging.
Optical metasurfaces have been extensively investigated, demonstrating diverse and multiple functionalities with complete control over the transmitted and reflected fields. Most optical metasurfaces are however static, with only a few configurations
offering (rather limited) electrical control, thereby jeopardizing their application prospects in emerging flat optics technologies. Here, we suggest an approach to realize electrically tunable optical metasurfaces, demonstrating dynamic Fresnel lens focusing. The active Fresnel lens (AFL) exploits the electro-optic Pockels effect in a 300-nm-thick lithium niobate layer sandwiched between a continuous thick and nanostructured gold film serving as electrodes. We fabricate and characterize the AFL, focusing 800-900 nm radiation at the distance of 40 $mathrm{mu}$m with the focusing efficiency of 15 % and demonstrating the modulation depth of 1.5 % with the driving voltage of $pm 10$ V within the bandwidth of $sim! 4$ MHz. We believe that the electro-optic metasurface concept introduced is useful for designing dynamic flat optics components.
We present a compact, fibre-coupled single photon source using gradient-index (GRIN) lenses and an InAsP semiconductor quantum dot embedded within an InP photonic nanowire waveguide. A GRIN lens assembly is used to collect photons close to the tip of
the nanowire, coupling the light immediately into a single mode optical fibre. The system provides a stable, high brightness source of fibre-coupled single photons. Using pulsed excitation, we demonstrate on-demand operation with a single photon purity of 98.5% when exciting at saturation in a device with a source-fibre collection efficiency of 35% and an overall single photon collection efficiency of 10%. We also demonstrate plug and play operation using room temperature photoluminescence from the InP nanowire for room temperature alignment.
