摘要

Abstract

The ability to control the wavefront of light is fundamental to focusing and redistribution of light

enabling many applications from imaging to spectroscopy. Wave interaction on highly nonlinear photorefractive materials is essentially the only established technology allowing the dynamic control of the wavefront of a light beam with another beam of light

but it is slow and requires large optical power. Here we report a proof-of-principle demonstration of a new technology for two-dimensional (2D) control of light with light based on the coherent interaction of optical beams on highly absorbing plasmonic metasurfaces. We illustrate this by performing 2D all-optical logical operations (AND

XOR and OR) and image processing. Our approach offers diffraction-limited resolution

potentially at arbitrarily-low intensity levels and with 100 THz bandwidth

thus promising new applications in space-division multiplexing

adaptive optics

image correction

processing and recognition

2D binary optical data processing and reconfigurable optical devices.
