Reducing a set of diverse bulk-optic-based optical components to a single ultrathin and compact element that enables the same complex functionality has become an emerging research area, propelling further integration and miniaturization in photonics. In this work, we establish a versatile metasurface platform based on gap-surface plasmon meta-atoms enabling efficient linear-polarization conversion along with the complete phase control over reflected fields. Capitalizing on the meta-atom design, multifunctional metamirrors involving linear-polarization conversion and focusing are experimentally demonstrated to generate various kinds of focused beams with distinct phase distributions and wavefronts, reproducing thereby the combined functionalities of conventional half-wave plates, lenses, and even spatial light modulators. The proof-of-concept fabricated metamirrors exhibit excellent capability of linear-polarization conversion and focusing within the wavelength range from 800 to 950 nm under linearly-polarized excitation. The multifunctional metamirrors design developed in this study opens new avenues in the advanced research and applications targeting photonics integration of diversified functionalities.
Many advances in reflective metasurfaces have been made during the last few years, implementing efficient manipulations of wavefronts, especially for plane waves. Despite numerous solutions that have been developed throughout the years, a practical m
Metasurfaces have shown unprecedented possibilities for wavefront manipulation of waves. The research efforts have been focused on the development of metasurfaces that perform a specific functionality for waves of one physical nature, for example, fo
We introduce the concept of non-uniform metamirrors (full-reflection metasurfaces) providing full control of reflected wave fronts independently from the two sides of the mirror. Metamirror is a single planar array of electrically small bianisotropic
Motivated by the recent growing demand in dynamically-controlled flat optics, we take advantage of a hybrid phase-change plasmonic metasurface (MS) to effectively tailor the amplitude, phase, and polarization responses of the incident beam within a u
Conventional mirrors obey Snells reflection law: a plane wave is reflected as a plane wave, at the same angle. To engineer spatial distributions of fields reflected from a mirror, one can either shape the reflector (for example, creating a parabolic
