            Abstract : 
Novel perspectives for the synthesis and implementation of metasurfaces are proposed. Two synthesis techniques - the first general and systematic ones reported to date - are presented and compared: a spectral-momentum technique and a spatial-susceptibility technique. For the implementation, recent innovations and discoveries pertaining to both scatterer arrays and traveling-wave leaky-wave metasurfaces are described and compared.
