Multiple Multicolored 3D Polarization Knots Arranged along Light Propagation.

ABSTRACT: Polarization and color play essential roles in understanding optical phenomena and practical applications. Customized three-dimensional (3D) light fields, characterized by specific polarization and color distributions, have garnered growing interest owing to their unique optical attributes and expanded capacity for information encoding. To align with the ongoing trend of compactness and integration, it is desirable to develop lightweight optical elements that can simultaneously control polarization and color in 3D space. Although engineering longitudinally variable 3D optical structures with predesigned color and polarization information can add more degrees of freedom and additional capacity for information encoding, it has not been reported. We propose a metasurface approach to generatin
