Plasmonic metasurfaces for optical super-oscillations and Fourier transforms

Plasmonic metasurfaces for optical super-oscillations and Fourier transforms
Plasmonic metasurfaces for optical super-oscillations and Fourier transforms
Super-oscillation is a physical phenomenon where a band-limited function can oscillate much faster than its highest Fourier component over arbitrarily large intervals. With super-oscillation, an optical field in the far-field can be focused into a hotspot with sub-diffraction resolution. In this work, I will introduce our recent progress on the generation of optical super-oscillations using plasmonic metasurfaces which give great flexibility on tuning the phase and amplitude of incoming wavefront. Optical Fourier transforms will also be discussed using similar metasurfaces to generate several special mathematical functions such as Airy and Weber functions.

Abstract

Super-oscillation is a physical phenomenon where a band-limited function can oscillate much faster than its highest Fourier component over arbitrarily large intervals. With super-oscillation, an optical field in the far-field can be focused into a hotspot with sub-diffraction resolution. In this work, I will introduce our recent progress on the generation of optical super-oscillations using plasmonic metasurfaces which give great flexibility on tuning the phase and amplitude of incoming wavefront. Optical Fourier transforms will also be discussed using similar metasurfaces to generate several special mathematical functions such as Airy and Weber functions.
