摘要
Based on the amplitude and phase modulation of subwavelength slits, a metasurface which can simultaneously generate Airy beam for surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) and transmitted wave is presented. Interestingly, by changing the handedness of circularly polarized light, the position of SPPs Airy beam can be switched to the left or right side of the metasurface, while the field distribution and the position of the Airy beam for transmitted wave are not affected. The nondiffracting, self-bending and self-healing properties of the generated Airy beams are analyzed as well. In addition, abruptly autofocusing of SPPs and transmitted wave are demonstrated by interfering two Airy beams. The dual functionality and chirality features of the metasurface can provide more freedoms in the potential applications of Airy beams. (C) 2017 Optical Society of America
