The emergence of many efficient optical field modulation methods and planar optical devices is attributed to the continuous research of geometric phase. Nevertheless, conjugate symmetry of the geometric phase limits the multiplexing of metasurfaces. To overcome this limitation, integrating the propagation phase and the geometric phase to achieve self-decouped metasurfaces can effectively double channel capacity. Herein, a more in-depth derivation of Jones matrices is conducted, leveraging two degrees of freedom offered by the propagation phase and the geometric phase. This approach enables complete modulation in circular polarization channels. By designing the phase difference between a fast axis and a slow axis, energy allocation between different channels can be controlled. It means independent complex amplitude modulation is achieved. On this basis, the geometric phase is introduced to realize tri-channel multiplexing metasurfaces. To verify the feasibility of this method, two metasurfaces are designed, including a bifocal metasurface with adjustable energy allocation and a tri-channel multiplexing metasurface. The proposed multifunctional metasurface offers new insights into wavefront multiplexing for communication systems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
