Abstract

We propose a novel method for the beam focusing by a single subwavelength metal slit surrounded by chirped dielectric surface gratings. In the proposed method, the period of each grating is chirped to make a focused beam at the desired position. Design of the grating structures for optimal beam focusing and the analysis of the field distribution are conducted based on the rigorous coupled wave analysis (RCWA). It is shown that the focused beam is formed at 1.5${\mu}m$ from the metal substrate and its full width at half maximum (FWHM) is 411nm.
