Harvard SEAS develops millimeter-scale flat metalenses
28 Jan 2021
Capasso group forms 2mm achromatic metalenses that focuses RGB with mini display for AR, VR applications.
In 2018, the Capassoâs team developed achromatic, aberration-free metalenses that work across the entire visible spectrum of light. But these lenses were only tens of microns in diameter, too small for practical use in virtual and augmented reality systems.
Now, the researchers have developed a two-millimeter achromatic metalenses that can focus RGB wavelengths without aberrations and developed a miniaturized display for virtual and augmented reality applications. The research is published in Science Advances.
âThis state-of-the-art lens opens a path to a new type of virtual reality platform and overcomes the bottleneck that has slowed the progress of new optical device,â said Capasso, who is the Robert L. Wallace Professor of Applied Physics and Vinton Hayes Senior Research Fellow in Electri

Despite all the advances in consumer technology over the past decades, one component has remained frustratingly stagnant: the optical lens. Unlike electronic devices, which have gotten smaller and more efficient over the years, the design and underlying physics of today s optical lenses haven t changed much in about 3,000 years.
This challenge has caused a bottleneck in the development of next-generation optical systems such as wearable displays for virtual reality, which require compact, lightweight, and cost-effective components.
