The design strategy relies on replacing the large openings of conventional holograms by arrays of subwavelength apertures, oriented to locally select a particular state of polarization. The resulting optical element can therefore be viewed as the superposition of two independent structures with very different length scales, that is, a hologram with each of its apertures filled with nanoscale openings to only transmit a desired state of polarization: As an implementation, we fabricated a nanostructured holographic plate that can generate radially polarized optical beams from circularly polarized incident light, and we demonstrated that it can broad range of wavelengths. The ability of a single holographic interface to simultaneously shape the amplitude, operate over a phase, and polarization of light can find widespread applications in photonics. %B NANO LETTERS %I AMER CHEMICAL SOC %C 1155 16TH ST, NW, WASHINGTON, DC 20036 USA %V 13 %P 4269-4274 %8 SEP %G eng %N 9 %9 Article %R 10.1021/nl402039y
