Manipulating the Nanoscale Optical Transmission with a
Meta-Transmitarray
   [PDF]

Francesco Monticone, Nasim Mohammadi Estakhri, Andrea Alu
By applying the optical nanocircuit concepts to metasurfaces, we propose an effective route to locally control light transmission over a deeply subwavelength scale. This concept realizes the optical equivalent of a transmitarray, whose use is demonstrated for light bending and focusing with unprecedented efficiency over a subwavelength distance, with crucial benefits for nano-optics applications. These findings may lead to large improvements in the manipulation of optical transmission and processing of nanoscale optical signals over conformal and Si-compatible substrates.
