Abstract

We show that a properly designed bianisotropic metasurface placed at the interface between two arbitrary different media, or coating a dielectric medium exposed to the air, provides Brewster (reflectionless) transmission at arbitrary angles for both the TM and TE polarizations. We present a rigorous derivation of the corresponding surface susceptibility tensors based on the generalized sheet transition conditions and demonstrate by full-wave simulations the system with planar microwave metasurfaces designed for polarization-independent and azimuth-independent operations. The proposed bianisotropic metasurfaces provide deeply subwavelength matching solutions for initially mismatched media. The reported generalized Brewster effect represents a fundamental advance in optical technology, where it may both improve the performance of conventional components and enable the development of novel devices.
