Abstract
High-resolution endoscopic optical imaging is a crucial technique in biological imaging to examine the inside organs. There is a trade-off between lateral resolution and depth of focus in such applications. Traditional Optical Coherence Tomography provides an increased depth range but falls short of desired resolution. The combination of both higher resolution and larger imaging depth of focus of metalens can improve the clinical utility of endoscopic optical imaging. In this work, we designed, analyzed, and fabricated a 500 µm diameter metalens operating at 1300 nm to achieve high resolution and large imaging depth of focus, therefore, addressing this need. The full width at half maximum and depth of focus for the proposed metalens are 3.10 and 286 µm, respectively.
