Abstract
Tailoring multiple degrees-of-freedom (DoFs) to achieve high-dimensional laser field is crucial for advancing optical technologies. While recent advancements have demonstrated the ability to manipulate a limited number of DoFs, most existing methods rely on bulky optical components or intricate systems that employ time-consuming iterative methods and, most critically, the on-demand tailoring of multiple DoFs simultaneously through a compact, single element-remains underexplored. In this study, we propose an intelligent hybrid strategy that enables the simultaneous and customizable manipulation of six DoFs: wave vector, initial phase, spatial mode, amplitude, orbital angular momentum (OAM) and spin angular momentum (SAM). Our approach advances in phase-only property, which facilitates tailoring strategy experimentally demonstrated on a compact metasurface. A fabricated sample is tailored to realize arbitrary manipulation across six DoFs, constructing a 288-dimensional space. Notably, since the OAM eigenstates constitute an infinite dimensional Hilbert space, this proposal can be further extended to even higher dimensions. Proof-of-principle experiments confirm the effectiveness in manipulation capability and dimensionality. We envision that this powerful tailoring ability offers immense potential for multifunctional photonic devices across both classical and quantum scenarios and such compactness extending the dimensional capabilities for integration on-chip requirements.
