Abstract

Holography, with the capability of recording and reconstructing wavefronts of light, has emerged as an ideal approach for future deep-immersive naked-eye display. However, the shortcomings (e.g., small field of view, twin imaging, multiple orders of diffraction) of traditional dynamic holographic devices bring many challenges to their practical applications. Metasurfaces, planar artificial materials composed of subwavelength unit cells, have shown great potential in light field manipulation, which is useful for overcoming these drawbacks. Here, we review recent progress in the field of dynamic metasurface holography, from realization methods to design strategies, mainly including typical research works on dynamic meta-holography based on tunable metasurfaces and multiplexed metasurfaces. Emerging applications of dynamic meta-holography have been found in 3D display, optical storage, optical encryption, and optical information processing, which may accelerate the development of light field manipulation and micro/nanofabrication with higher dimensions. A number of potential applications and possible development paths are also discussed at the end.
