Abstract. Metasurfaces have demonstrated unprecedented capabilities in manipulating light with ultrathin
and flat architectures. Although great progress has been made in the metasurface designs and function
demonstrations, most metalenses still only work as a substitution of conventional lenses in optical settings,
whose integration advantage is rarely manifested. We propose a highly integrated imaging device with silicon
metalenses directly mounted on a complementary metal oxide semiconductor image sensor, whose work ing
distance is in hundreds of micrometers. The imaging performances including resolution, signal-to-noise ratio,
and field of view (FOV) are investigated. Moreover, we develop a metalens array with polarization-multiplexed
dual-phase design for a wide-field microscopic imaging. This approach remarkably expands the FOV without
reducing the resolution, which promises a non-limited space-bandwidth product imaging for wide-field
microscopy. As a result, we demo nstrate a centimeter-scale prototype for microscopic imaging, showing
uniqueness of meta-design for compact integration.

1 Introduction
Curre nt imaging technology has been well developed by ver-
satile strategies for outstanding performances in high resolu-
tion, high image quality, and broad wavelength band. Most
of these techniques are established on the basis of mature re-
fractive or reflective optical elements, such as lenses, internal
reflection mirrors, etc., which result in optical systems that
are bulky, heavy, and inconvenient for portability. However,
more compact, light, and stable optica l systems are the ever-
growing requirement of modern applications. Recent advances
in computational imaging (including the lensless and scatter-
ing medium imaging) have shown a successful route to reduce
the complexity of the optical system by discarding the refrac-
tive lenses.

Nevertheless, they are not a real phy sical image,
and the image quality strongly relies on the post-processing
algorithms, such as iterative phase recovery algorithm,

It inevitably
requires computational resources that are time consuming
and sometimes needs particular prior knowledge for imaging
reconstruction.
Benefiting from the development of nanofabrication technol-
ogy, the metasurface as a new breakthrough of optical design
has demonstrated tremendous capabilities in manipulating
light by subwavelength unit cells,
9–12
and fascinating applica-
tions with the low loss dielectric metasurfaces have been
revealed.
13–16
Among these applications, the metalens is one
of the most promising candidates for upgrading current optical
systems. During the past several years, exciting progress con-
cerning the imaging performance of the metalens has been
made, including improved efficiency,

applications. As we revisit metasurface design besides those
achievements, the ultrathin, ultralight, and flat architecture
features as the core advantage of this newly developing optical
design. However, only a few works focus on compact integra-
tion,
26,27
and there is a lack of systematic characterization of
imaging performance. In most previous works, metalenses act
only as subst itutes for conventional refractive lenses and play
almost the same role in conventional optical settings without
showing their uniqueness for integration.
21,28–30
In this work, we directly integrate the metalenses onto the
complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) image
sensor to show the major advantage of the flat metalens. The
metalenses were manufactured in amorphous silicon (α-Si)
nano-posts designed by the geometric Pancharatnam–Berry
(PB) phase on a SiO
2
substrate, where the Si material was used
for potential compatibility to full CMOS-based devices. After
careful characterization of the imaging qualities with respect
to the resolution, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), FOV, and so on,
we show the capability of this metalens-integrated ima ging
device (MIID) for spectral focal tuning
31
due to the large
dispersion. It breaks the limitation of lens-free shadow imaging
that cannot resolve the depth-of-field (DOF) of the object.
32
More important ly, we develop a metalens array to cover a
wide area of CMOS image sensors for a wide-field imaging.
To eliminate the blind areas in multiple-images-stitching,
here, we utilize a polarization-multiplexed dual-phase (PMDP)
design (with respect to two circular polarizations) to access
two sets of lenses with complementary image areas. A full
stitched wide-field image is completed only by switching
the polarization without any mechanical movement. As a re-
su lt, we achieved hig h-resolution images (∼1.74 μm almost
limited by i mage sensor pixel) with a millimeter-scale image
area (expandable to whole centimeter-scale CMOS sensor),
which was ultimately implemented in a ∼3-cm size device
prototype. This ultra-compact microscope system promises
more exciting applications of metalens in high resolution, large
FOV, and tunable DOF imaging.
2 Device Architecture and Fabrication
Figure 1(a) shows the schemati cs of imaging setup for our
MIID. An optically clear adhesive (OCA) tape (Tesa, 69402)
is used to transfer and fix the metalens on the CMOS image
sensor (Imaging source, DMM 27UJ003-ML, pixel size:
1.67 μm × 1.67 μm) with proper thickness for imaging distance
v (the distance between the CMOS image sensor and metalens)
in our experiment. Here, the OCA is employed for its colorless
transparency with high transmittance (>90%) in the visible and
near-infrared ranges, which is widely used in optoelectronic
devices. We also take OCA tape as the spacer medium of inte-
gration for the well-defined stationary thickness. The detailed
metalens integration process is further described in Sec. S1
of the Supplementary Material. With skillful operation, the in-
tegration deviation is very small, and the distortion caused by
lens tilting can be handled. Once the metalens is mounted on the
CMOS image sensor, the imaging distance is fixed, and a clear
image can be acquired by tuning the object distance u (the dis-
tance between metalens and object) with the translation stage.
Figure 1(b) shows the photograph of the highly compact MIID
(here, v ¼ 500 μm ). It should be noted that, due to the complex
medium layers in both image space and object space of the meta-
lens, the parameters (u; v) here are effective ones containing the
influence of the medium. We first measured the effective imag-
ing distance and take it as constant in our theoretical design.
A white-light source of a halogen lamp with color filters was
employed for incoherent monochromatic illumination. The met-
alens is designed as an aplanatic lens to eliminate on-axis aber-
rations for the 4f imaging scheme (u ¼ v ¼ 2f) with a phase
