Full-space trifunctional metasurface with independent control of amplitude and phase for circularly polarized waves. [PDF]
Abstract Flexible and diverse manipulation of electromagnetic (EM) waves in half space (reflection or transmission) has facilitated strong aspiration toward full‐space wave control. However, it remains challenging to achieve independent amplitude and phase control, which seriously hinder the real‐world applications.

Flat lens-based subwavelength focusing and scanning enabled by Fourier translation. [PDF]
Abstract We demonstrate a technique for flexibly controlling subwavelength focusing and scanning, by using the Fourier translation property of a topology‐preserved flat lens. The Fourier transform property of the flat lens enables converting an initial phase shift of light into a spatial displacement of its focus.
