High-performance gallium nitride dielectric metalenses for imaging in the visible.

ABSTRACT: Metalens is one of the most promising applications for the development of metasurfaces. A wide variety of materials have been applied to metalenses working at certain spectral bands in order to meet the requirements of high efficiency and low-cost fabrication. Among these materials, wide-bandgap gallium nitride (GaN) is one of the most promising materials considering its advantages especially in semiconductor manufacturing. In this work, GaN has been utilized to fabricate the high-performance metalenses operating at visible wavelengths of 405, 532, and 633 nm with efficiencies up to 79%, 84%, and 89%, respectively. The homemade 1951 United State Air Force (UASF) resolution test chart has also been fabricated in order to provide resolvable lines with widths as small as 870 nm. As shown in t
