Arbitrary polarization and rotation multiplexed metasurface hologram

Metasurface holograms, characterized by their ultra-small thickness, high efficiency, and low loss, hold significant potential for applications in optical information storage, optical field manipulation, and security encryption. This paper proposed a polarization switchable and rotation multiplexing metasurface based on simultaneous amplitude and phase modulation. By precisely designing meta-atoms, the geometric parameters and orientation angle are engineered to independently control the phase and amplitude distributions of the metasurface. Utilizing a polarization switching strategy, incident light with different polarization angles generates distinct holograms. Additionally, the rotation-multiplexing mechanism further enhances information storage capacity by rotating the metasurface disk, thereby increasing the diversity and degrees of freedom in hologram. The results demonstrate that this approach enables precise optical field manipulation across multiple degrees of freedom, facilitating the reconstruction of multichannel holograms. This method provides a novel technological pathway for high-density optical storage, information encryption, and dynamic optical display.
