Metasurface-enabled broadband multidimensional photodetectors.

ABSTRACT: Light encodes multidimensional information, such as intensity, polarization, and spectrum. Traditional extraction of this light information requires discrete optical components by subdividing the detection area into many "one-to-one" functional pixels. The broadband photodetection of high-dimensional optical information with a single integrated on-chip detector is highly sought after, yet it poses significant challenges. In this study, we employ a metasurface-assisted graphene photodetector, enabling to simultaneously detect and differentiate various polarization states and wavelengths of broadband light (1-8 μm) at the wavelength prediction accuracy of 0.5 μm. The bipolar polarizability empowered by this design allows to decouple multidimensional information (encompassing polarization and
