BACKGROUND Future high-performance portable and wearable optical devices and systems with small footprints and low weights will require components with small form …
The research and development of optical metasurfaces has been primarily driven by the curiosity for novel optical phenomena that are unattainable from materials that exist in nature …
We present a computational framework for efficient optimization-based “inverse design” of large-area “metasurfaces”(subwavelength-patterned surfaces) for applications such as multi …
Compact varifocal lenses are essential to various imaging and vision technologies. However, existing varifocal elements typically rely on mechanically actuated systems with …
In this study, three samples of commercial titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2) in different sizes were used to investigate their effect on the formulation of sunscreen creams. The aim …
The high refractive indexes and low optical losses of dielectrics are preferred for designing highly efficient metasurfaces with unprecedented wavefront control such as near-unity …
The realization of hybrid optics could be one of the best ways to fulfill the technological requirements of compact, light-weight, and multi-functional optical systems for modern …
Electromagnetic wave absorbers have been investigated for many years with the aim of achieving high absorbance and tunability of both the absorption wavelength and the …
We demonstrate optimization of optical metasurfaces over 10^ 5–10^ 6 degrees of freedom in two and three dimensions, 100–1000+ wavelengths (λ) in diameter, with 100+ parameters …
