Session 5: Novel Opto-electronic Materials and Devices

This session mainly focuses on the electromagnetic and acoustic manipulation theories,

methods and applications based on subwavelength structures. In traditional methods,

the manipulation of waves is mainly realized by bulky materials, which relies on a

curved shape, and thus hard to be light-weighted and compactable. Besides, the

traditional materials can hardly realize multifunctional manipulation of waves, such as

controlling the amplitude, phase distribution and polarization at the same time. Due to

the extraordinary characteristics of metamaterials and metasurfaces, the manipulation

methods of the objects have been greatly expanded, and the all-vector control is realized.

The amplitude, phase and polarization can be simultaneously controlled by properly

designing the unit cells of the metamaterials or metasurfaces. The novel applications of

the electromagnetic and acoustic materials that used to be hard to realize have also been

constructed, such as planar lenses, beam deflectors, and OAM generators, etc.
