Abstract
This paper presents the design of a rotational varifocal metasurface lens based on the principle of moiré lenses, utilizing square single-crystal silicon pillars. The metalens comprises two cascaded face-to-face metasurfaces, enabling focal length adjustment through the mutual rotation of these two metasurfaces. This design achieves high transmittance and complete 2π phase coverage. And through simulation verification, by rotating one layer of the metasurface from 60°, 72°, 90°, and 120°, the focal length of the designed moire metalens shifts from 5.68mm to 2.39mm along the -z direction on the xz plane, proving that the focus-shifted metalens we designed can be controlled by independently rotating the single-layer metasurface to adjust the focal length within the same focal plane.
