Abstract
Light carries information on its multiple degrees of freedom, underlying a variety of optical imaging and characterization methods. To benefit from such methods, it is essential to achieve precise control over light waves based on the intrinsic properties of light. Although this has been typically obtained by using bulky conventional optics, it has recently been recognized that optical resonances in high-index nanostructures can be harnessed to manipulate light waves in a controlled fashion. This novel approach, called flat optics, offers new opportunities for the integration of the ability to control light waves into optoelectronic devices. In this thesis, we illustrate our approaches with thin nanopatterned semiconductor films to achieve improved control over optical degrees of freedom in optoelectronic devices, especially focusing on optical spin and surface textures.
