    摘要: A multi-modal imaging device can include a sensor array, a metamaterial filter, and a memory unit. The sensor array can be any suitable sensor which detects incoming light and is capable of recording a received image. The metamaterial filter can be oriented adjacent the sensor array and can be patterned with pixels having varied physical heights designed to diffract an incoming image to produce an engineered response which is sensitive to 2D spatial coordinates (x, y), time (t), and at least one of depth spatial coordinate (z), spectrum (λ), and degree of polarization ({right arrow over (S)}). The memory unit can include instructions that, when executed by a processor, reconstruct the engineered response to produce a reconstructed image which includes the 2D spatial coordinates and at least one of z, λ, and {right arrow over (S)}.

    摘要: The disclosure provides a self-biased magneto-optical non-reciprocal metasurface device. The device includes substrate layer and a sub-wavelength structure layer. The substrate layer is a material layer with a refractive index of 1 to 5 in a microwave frequency band. The sub-wavelength structure layer includes a plurality of square columnar elements arranged in a matrix period with equal period in row and column directions. The square columnar elements include magneto-optical material. The adjustment of phase and amplitude of a circularly polarized electromagnetic wave is achieved by changing the length, width and height of the square columnar elements, and thus the device attains a desired isolation and insertion loss at a center frequency f0. The parameters of the magneto-optical material are: coercivity Hc≥1000 A/m; remanence Br≥1 kGs; a voigt parameter of a permittivity tensor or permeability tensor in a working frequency band≥0.01.
