Ultra-High-Efficiency Anomalous Refraction with Dielectric Metasurfaces

Anomalous refraction is a form of extreme waveform manipulation that can be realized with artificially structured nanomaterials, such as metamaterials or metasurfaces. While this phenomenon has been previously demonstrated for select input and output angles, its generalization to arbitrary angles with high efficiencies remains a challenge. In this study, we show that periodic dielectric metasurfaces can support ultra-high-efficiency anomalous...
