Abstract
A lidar system and method includes a photodiode array, a wafer, and a plurality of structures integrated on the wafer to form a metasurface lens. The metasurface lens is configured to focus the light pulses to the photodiode array and each of the plurality of structures includes at least one dimension that is less than a wavelength of the light pulses.
