Meta-optical device and electronic apparatus including the same

Abstract

Provided is a meta-optical device exhibiting a target phase delay profile with respect to incident light of a predetermined wavelength band, the meta-optical device including: a first layer including a plurality of first nanostructures and a first surrounding material surrounding the plurality of first nanostructures, and having a first phase delay profile of a first tendency that is substantially equal to a tendency of the target phase delay profile; a second layer including a plurality of second nanostructures and a second surrounding material surrounding the plurality of second nanostructures, and having a second phase delay profile of a second tendency that is substantially opposite to the tendency of the target phase delay profile; and a third layer including a plurality of third nanostructures and a third surrounding material surrounding the plurality of third nanostructures, wherein the third layer is different from the second layer in terms of at least one of a material and an arrangement rule. The meta-optical device is capable of minimizing a primary dispersion and higher-order dispersions and thus may exhibit constant diffraction efficiency with respect to light of a wide wavelength band.
