Single thin lens able to focus the entire visible spectrum will transform augmented and virtual reality

Single thin lens able to focus the entire visible spectrum will transform augmented and virtual reality

“The Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) has developed the first single lens that can focus the entire visible spectrum of light — including white light — in the same spot and in high resolution. This has only ever been achieved in conventional lenses by stacking multiple lenses. * Metalenses are thin, easy to fabricate and cost-effective. This breakthrough extends those advantages across the whole visible range of light. This is the next big step…”
