Abstract

We design and fabricate polarization-dependent components (PDCs) based on all-dielectric, fully planarized, multilayer microstructures of 150 nm period by using low-loss materials. Quarter-wave and half-wave phase plates at 405 nm are presented. Multifunction integrated diffractive PDCs are discussed
