Abstract

Metamaterial and metasurface devices (i.e., meta-devices) have shown tremendous potential for disrupting conventional RF and optical system design due to their ability to tailor the propagation of electromagnetic radiation in a desired fashion. Meta-devices are generally synthesized from "meta-atom"building blocks which are optimized to meet a certain set of user-designed performance criteria. Meta-atom optimization often requires the use of full-wave electromagnetic solvers which can make the process computationally challenging, especially when a large number of design parameters are used to define the meta-atoms. To this end, inverse-design strategies based on multi-objective optimization and deep learning which seek to efficiently explore the vast space afforded by nanofabricated meta-devices are presented.
