“…Conventional approaches to manipulate the polarization state of light using birefringent crystals and grating structures are subject to bulky waveplates [14][15][16] , thus the inherent defects of the conventional polarizers are large geometry and low efficiency in natural materials, which are difficult to meet in the current miniaturization of microwave and optical system integration. Metamaterials (MMs) are artificially engineered planar materials that typically with sub-wavelength periodic structures 17,18 , which exhibit EM properties not existed in nature, such as negative refraction 19,20 , perfect absorbers 17,21 , and electromagnetic cloaking 22,23 . Metasurface (MS) is a kind of two-dimensional MM, which not only possesses the exotic EM characteristics not existed in nature metamaterials, but also has the advantages of design, fabrication and integration compared to the MMs.…”
