Multi-focus plasmonic lens design based on holography.
Multi-focus plasmonic lens with metallic nanoslits of variant widths have great potential applications in optical interconnection, integrated optics and nanophotonics. But the design method with simulated annealing algorithm or Yang-Gu algorithm requires complex calculation and multi focuses are limited to be set on the same output plane. In this paper, we propose a design method based on holography. The desired light field distribution and the incident plane wave can be treated as object wave and reference wave, respectively. So the calculation is relative simple and multi focuses can be located in different output plane. Numerical simulation of multi-focus lens design is performed through finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method and the result confirms the feasibility of our method.
