Abstract

Meta-optics are now becoming mass-producible and commercially available. The available wavelengths have advanced from NIR to the visible range allowing many fields to start taking advantage of this technology. Quantum computing is a field that is suggested to be particularly well suited for meta-optics. Meta-optics have advantages over conventional optics in several aspects that are important for quantum computing. In this paper we will discuss key points of meta-optics design, manufacturing, and performance measurements with potential advantages for quantum computing applications. Recent progress in releasing workflows to design meta-optics using common lens design software providing a meta-optic option that can be utilized by designers for any of the optical subsystems in quantum computing.
