Multiple beneficial optical device properties scale with the thickness of nanostructures. For example, taller nanostructures afford a greater degree of control over multiple colors of light, expanding the range of chromatic behaviors and possibly leading to large-area achromatic metalenses. However, in conventional meta-optics, which employ free-standing nanopillars or nanofins, increasing the nanostructure height while maintaining subwavelength nanostructure spacing requires high aspect ratio structures (aspect ratio = height to width ratio), which are difficult to fabricate and work...
