RAM-adaptive parallel generating and minimizing the layout file of wafer-scale metalens

RAM-adaptive parallel generating and minimizing the layout file of wafer-scale metalens
Metalens have emerged as an attractive device for astronomy observation because of their submillimeter thickness and lightweight as well as their powerful manipulating ability of light field’s amplitude, phase, and polarisation. However, the aperture size of a metalens is restricted within a millimetre scale by the layout file sizes. Here, we introduce the OASIS format to effectively reduce the layout file sizes and propose a RAM-adaptive parallel approach for accelerating the layout file generation of large-aperture metalens. By designing a metalens working in the wavelength of 1550nm, we demonstrate that the layout file sizes can be reduced by 94% via using OASIS format than conventional GDS format. Based on a multiple-core computer, the OASIS layout file of a 5cm-diameter metalens can be generated within 10 hours.

Abstract

Metalens have emerged as an attractive device for astronomy observation because of their submillimeter thickness and lightweight as well as their powerful manipulating ability of light field’s amplitude, phase, and polarisation. However, the aperture size of a metalens is restricted within a millimetre scale by the layout file sizes. Here, we introduce the OASIS format to effectively reduce the layout file sizes and propose a RAM-adaptive parallel approach for accelerating the layout file generation of large-aperture metalens. By designing a metalens working in the wavelength of 1550nm, we demonstrate that the layout file sizes can be reduced by 94% via using OASIS format than conventional GDS format. Based on a multiple-core computer, the OASIS layout file of a 5cm-diameter metalens can be generated within 10 hours.
