Abstract We present the design and fabrication of a novel dual-function high contrast gratings that can be used as a polarization-selective beam splitter with transverse magnetic polarization, which performs two independent functions, i.e., reflection focusing and power equalization at a wavelength of 1550 nm. This dual-function grating profile is optimized by the rigorous coupled-wave analysis and the finite-element method. Simple analytical expressions of phase and modal guideline for the beam splitter design are given. The beam splitter based on the grating structure is experimentally studied at a distance of 160 μ m from the reflection plane, the results are consistent with the theoretical results basically.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
