New paper in Nature Communications: A Hybrid Achromatic Metalens

U.K. graduate students Fatih Balli, Mansoor Sultan, and Sarah Lami just published their work on "flat optics" in Nature Communications.  Their paper, "A Hybrid Achromatic Metalens," describes lenses between 10 and 50 times thinner than a human hair.  The lenses image with light spanning a broad range of wavelengths in the near infrared.  The compact size, light weight, and mass manufacturabilty of metalenses make them ideal for mobile and airborne imaging, as well as for integration with optoelectronic systems for communications, computing, and medical diagnostics.
