Light projection displays play an increasingly important role in our modern life. Core projection systems including liquid crystal displays and digital micromirror devices can impose spatial light modulation and actively shape light waves. Recently, the advent of metasurfaces has revolutionized design concepts in nanophotonics, enabling a new family of optical elements with exceptional degrees of freedom. Here, we demonstrate a light projection display technology based on optical metasurfaces, called digital metasurface device (DMSD). Each metasurface pixel in a DMSD is electrically reconfigurable with well-controlled programmability and addressability. The DMSD can not only continuously modulate the intensity of light with high contrast, but also shape the wavefront of light generated by each metasurface pixel and dynamically switch between arbitrary holographic patterns. Our approach will pave an avenue towards the development of customized light projection devices. It will also drive the field of dynamic optical metasurfaces with fresh momentum and inspiring concepts.

Switchable and active metasurfaces allow for the realization of beam steering, zoomable metalenses, or dynamic holography. To achieve this goal, one has to combine high-performance metasurfaces with switchable materials that exhibit high refractive i
ndex contrast and high switching speeds. In this work, we present an electrochemically switchable metasurface for beam steering where we use the conducting polymer poly(3,4-ethylene-dioxythiophene) (PEDOT) as an active material. We show beam diffraction with angles up to 10{deg} and change of the intensities of the diffracted and primary beams employing an externally applied cyclic voltage between -1 V and +0.5 V. With this unique combination, we realize switching speeds in the range of 1 Hz while the extension to typical display frequencies in the tens of Hz region is possible. Our findings have immediate implications on the design and fabrication of future electronically switchable and display nanotechnologies, such as dynamic holograms.
Spatial light modulators (SLMs) are devices for modulating amplitude, phase or polarization of a light beam on demand. Such devices have been playing an indispensable inuence in many areas from our daily entertainments to scientific researches. In th
e past decades, the SLMs have been mainly operated in electrical addressing (EASLM) manner, wherein the writing images are created and loaded via conventional electronic interfaces. However, adoption of pixelated electrodes puts limits on both resolution and efficiency of the EASLMs. Here, we present an optically addressed SLM based on a nonlinear metasurface (MS-OASLM), by which signal light is directly modulated by another writing beam requiring no electrode. The MS-OASLM shows unprecedented compactness and is 400 nm in total thickness benefitting from the outstanding nonlinearity of the metasurface. And their subwavelength feature size enables a high resolution up to 250 line pairs per millimeter, which is more than one order of magnitude better than any currently commercial SLMs. Such MS-OASLMs could provide opportunities to develop the next generation of high resolution displays and all-optical information processing technologies.
Structural colors generated due to light scattering from static all-dielectric metasurfaces have successfully enabled high-resolution, high-saturation and wide-gamut color printing applications. Despite recent advances, most demonstrations of these s
tructure-dependent colors lack post-fabrication tunability that hinders their applicability for front-end dynamic display technologies. Phase-change materials (PCMs), with significant contrast of their optical properties between their amorphous and crystalline states, have demonstrated promising potentials in reconfigurable nanophotonics. Herein, we leverage a tunable all-dielectric reflective metasurface made of a newly emerged class of low-loss optical PCMs with superb characteristics, i.e., antimony trisulphide (Sb$_2$S$_3$), antimony triselenide (Sb$_2$Se$_3$), and binary germanium-doped selenide (GeSe$_3$), to realize switchable, high-saturation, high-efficiency and high-resolution structural colors. Having polarization sensitive building blocks, the presented metasurface can generate two different colors when illuminated by two orthogonally polarized incident beams. Such degrees of freedom (i.e., structural state and polarization) enable a single reconfigurable metasurface with fixed geometrical parameters to generate four distinct wide-gamut colors suitable for a wide range of applications, including tunable full-color printing and displays, information encryption, and anti-counterfeiting.
The Rashba effect, i.e., the splitting of electronic spin-polarized bands in the momentum space of a crystal with broken inversion symmetry, has enabled the realization of spin-orbitronic devices, in which spins are manipulated by spin-orbit coupling
. In optics, where the helicity of light polarization represents the spin degree of freedom for spin-momentum coupling, the optical Rashba effect is manifested by the splitting of optical states with opposite chirality in the momentum space. Previous realizations of the optical Rashba effect relied on passive devices determining either the propagation direction of surface plasmons or circularly polarized light into nanostructures, or the directional emission of polarized luminescence from metamaterials hybridized with light-emitting media. Here we demonstrate an active device underpinned by the optical Rashba effect, in which a monolithic halide perovskite metasurface emits highly directional chiral photoluminescence. An all-dielectric metasurface design with broken in-plane inversion symmetry is directly embossed into the high refractive index, light-emitting perovskite film, yielding a degree of circular polarization of photoluminescence of 40% at room temperature - more than one order of magnitude greater than in state of art chiral perovskites.
Compact, lightweight and high-performance spatial light modulators (SLMs) are crucial for modern optical technologies. The drive for pixel miniaturization, necessary to improve their performance, has led to a promising alternative, active optical met
asurfaces, which enable tunable subwavelength wavefront manipulation. Here, we demonstrate an all-solid-state programmable transmissive SLM device based on Huygens dielectric metasurfaces. The metasurface features electrical tunability, provided by mature liquid crystals (LCs) technology. In contrast to conventional LC SLMs, our device enables high resolution with a pixel size of ~1 um. We demonstrate its performance by realizing programmable beam steering, which exhibits high side mode suppression ratio of ~6 dB. By complementing the device with a 3D printed doublet microlens, fabricated using two-photon polymerization, we enhance the field of view up to ~80 degrees. The developed prototype paves the way to compact, efficient and multifunctional devices for next generation augmented reality displays, light detection and ranging (LiDAR) systems and optical computing.
