Embodiments relate to a photonic component having a metasurface. The metasurface includes a substrate with a thin-layer of meta-atoms disposed thereon. The photonic component includes a waveguide having a top surface, wherein the metasurface is disposed on at least a portion of the top surface such that the meta-atoms form an array on the top surface. The photonic component includes a sandwich nano-bar antenna formed in or on the metasurface.

This disclosure provides systems, methods, and devices related to a metasurface skin cloak. In one aspect, a metasurface skin cloak includes a dielectric layer and a plurality of blocks disposed on the dielectric layer. The dielectric layer is disposed over a surface including a feature on the surface. Each block of the plurality of blocks has a shape that is symmetric about two perpendicular axes. The metasurface skin can render the feature on the surface not optically detectable.
