Topology optimization of freeform large-area metasurfaces

We demonstrate optimization of optical metasurfaces over 10⁵–10⁶ degrees of freedom in two and three dimensions, 100–1000+ wavelengths (λ) in diameter, with 100+ parameters per λ². In particular, we show how topology optimization, with one degree of freedom per high-resolution “pixel,” can be extend...
