Optical dispersion results from the index of refraction of a material varying with the frequency of incident light. Accurate control over this property is vital. For example, it mitigates pulse spreading in optical fibers, which are the backbone of modern telecommunications, and enables pulse compression in ultrafast laser optics (2018 Nobel Prize in Physics). In this talk, I will begin with an introduction to the design, simulation, and fabrication of metasurface components with a focus on metalenses. Subsequently, I will illustrate how to control metasurface dispersion by customizing the group delay and group delay dispersion of constituent nanostructures. Such dispersion-engineered metasurfaces enable achromatic metalenses, aberration-corrected spectrometers, as well as lens-aberration correctors designed for simple singlets to complicated microscope objectives. My talk will be summarized by detailing on-going works involving metasurface-enabled superachromatic and broadband high-efficiency lenses and pointing out future emerging applications. These demonstrations are vastly applicable to machine vision, autonomous vehicles, optical communication, augmented and virtual reality devices, and more.
