While nanoscale color generations have been studied for years, high performance transmission structural colors, simultaneously equipped with large gamut, high resolution, low loss and optical multiplexing abilities, still remain as a hanging issue. Here, beneficial from metasurfaces, we demonstrate a silicon metasurface embedded Fabry-Perot cavity (meta-FP cavity), with polydimethylsiloxanes (PDMS) surrounding media and silver film mirrors. By changing the planar geometries of the embedded nanopillars, the meta-FP cavity provides transmission colors with ultra large gamut of 194% sRGB and ultrahigh resolution of 141111 DPI, along with considerably average transmittance of 43% and more than 300% enhanced angular tolerance. Such high density allows two-dimensional color mixing at diffraction limit scale. The color gamut and the resolution can be flexibly tuned and improved by modifying the silver film thickness and the lattice period. The polarization manipulation ability of the metasurface also enables arbitrary color arrangement between cyan and red for two orthogonal linear polarization states, at deep subwavelength scale. Our proposed cavities can be used in filters, printings, optical storages and many other applications in need of high quality and density colors.
