Focusing and imaging of a polarization-controlled bifocal metalens.

Metalenses are a kind of flat optical device, which consist of an array of nanoantennas with subwavelength thickness that manipulates the incoming light wavefront in a precisely tailorable manner. In this work, we proposed a bifocal metalens that can realize switchable multiplane imaging, controlled by changing the polarization state of an incident light. The polarization-dependent metalens was designed and fabricated by arranging polysilicon nanobeam unit elements. We simulated and experimentally characterized the focus performance of the bifocal metalens. Under the light incidence with left-handed circular polarization, the focal length is 250 µm. By changing the polarization state to right-handed circular polarization, the focal length is tuned to 200 µm. Experimental results and numerical simulations are in good agreement. Moreover, when a linear polarization light is used, two focal spots will appear at the same time. Such a bifocal metalens is suitable for multiplane imaging applications.
