High sensitivity refractive index sensing using zone plate metasurfaces with a conical phase profile

Abstract In this paper, we showed how a bulky Axicon lens can be transformed to a compact binary zone plate with conical phase profile. We built three zone plates made of three different materials and designed each zone plate to be used in high sensitivity refractive index sensing. This work is comp...
