摘要

Abstract

With properties not previously available

optical metamaterials and metasurfaces have shown their great potential in the precise control of light waves at the nanoscale. However

the use of current metamaterials and metasurfaces is limited by the collective response of the meta-atoms/molecules

which means that a single element cannot provide the functionalities required by most applications. Here

we demonstrate for the first time that a single achiral nanoaperture can be utilized as a meta-macromolecule to achieve giant angular spin Hall effect of light. By controlling the spin-related momenta

we show that these nanoapertures can enable full control of the phase gradient at a deep-subwavelength level

thus forming unique building blocks for optical metasurfaces. As a proof-of-concept demonstration

a miniaturized Bessel-like beam generator and flat lens are designed and experimentally characterized. The results presented here may open a door for the development of meta-macromolecule-based metasurfaces for integrated optical systems and nanophotonics.
