Abstract
We propose an active meta-lens that can dynamically switch the coaxial focus on three statuses with the external optical pump. The meta-lens composes of two concentric sets of complementary split-ring resonator (CSRR) arrays, which function at different focal lengths, atop the silicon on sapphire substrate. With specifically structured phase distribution, the meta-lens can form completely separated double foci simultaneously. Through illuminating the internal or external CSRR arrays individually with patterned optical pump, the meta-lens switches to single focus at different points. The proposed design provides a new avenue for developing terahertz multifunctional devices applied in microscope imaging and tomography.
