基于马吕斯定律的多通道偏振复用伪装编码超表面设计

    Multi-channel polarization-multiplexed camouflage coding metasurface based on Malus law

    • 摘要: 提出了一种基于马吕斯定律取向简并性的多通道偏振复用超表面,用于实现近场灰度成像、双自旋远场全息及伪装编码。利用马吕斯响应中同一光强对应多组等效取向角的一对多映射,将线偏交叉反射通道的幅值约束转化为圆偏交叉通道的几何相位选择自由度,从而实现近场强度调制与远场波前编码的协同设计。在线偏振入射下,超表面重构近场灰度图像;在圆偏振入射下,传播相位与几何相位共同构成自旋相关相位响应,实现左旋圆偏振和右旋圆偏振通道的独立全息重构。进一步引入可编程线性相位梯度,使双自旋全息图像产生预设空间错位并叠加形成复合伪装图像;同时,近场灰度图像作为空间掩膜参与解码,用于抑制冗余结构并提取目标信息。该方法在单一超表面中统一了幅值、相位与偏振自由度,为高容量偏振复用显示、光学信息隐藏和防伪编码提供了可扩展方案。

       

      Abstract: This paper proposed a multi-channel polarization-multiplexed metasurface based on the orientation degeneracy of Malus law, enabling near-field grayscale imaging, dual-spin far-field holography and camouflage encoding. By exploiting one-to-many mapping in Malus response, where the same optical intensity corresponds to multiple equivalent orientation angles, the amplitude constraint in cross-linearly polarized reflection channel was converted into geometric-phase selection freedom in cross-circularly polarized channel. This enabled collaborative design of near-field intensity modulation and far-field wavefront encoding. Under linearly polarized incidence, metasurface reconstructed a near-field grayscale image. Under circularly polarized incidence, propagation phase and geometric phase jointly formed spin-dependent phase responses, enabling independent holographic reconstruction in left circular polarization and right circular polarization channels. Furthermore, a programmable linear phase gradient was introduced to produce a preset spatial displacement between dual-spin holographic images, which were then superimposed to form a composite camouflage image. Meanwhile, near-field grayscale image served as a spatial mask during decoding, suppressing redundant structures and extracting target information. This method unifies amplitude, phase, and polarization degrees of freedom within a single metasurface, providing a scalable strategy for high-capacity polarization-multiplexed displays, optical information hiding and anti-counterfeiting encoding.
