Angular-Invariant Scattering in Metasurfaces
Metasurfaces are versatile electromagnetic structures for wave shaping, yet their angular dispersion remains underexplored. Using generalized sheet transition conditions (GSTCs), we analyze metasurface angular dispersion and derive conditions for angle-invariant co- and cross-polarized transmission and reflection, where amplitude, phase, or both remain unchanged with incidence angle. We reveal that nonlocality can suppress angular dispersion, enabling complete angle-invariant scattering. Additionally, we show that pseudochiral metasurfaces can achieve efficient extrinsic chirality in a partially angle-invariant manner. These results provide a strategy to mitigate angular-dependent scattering, essential for applications sensitive to dispersion effects.
