Abstract
Computer-generated holography and nanoprinting are two typical applications of optical metasurfaces. Recently, merging holography and nanoprinting into a multifunctional metasurface becomes an emerging research hotspot, which has prospective applications in multi-folded anti-counterfeiting, information decoding and multiplexing, multi-channel image display and VR/AR, etc. In this paper, based on the features of metasurface-based nanoprinting and computer-generated holography, the advances in the research of merging them were classified and characterized in detail. Specifically, the merging methods were discussed in detail which included orthogonal-polarization multiplexing scheme, in-plane arrangement scheme, multilayer-stacking scheme, simultaneous spectrum and phase control scheme, complex amplitude modulation scheme, orientation degeneracy scheme. The future development of multifunctional metasurfaces was prospected.
