Abstract
We describe a high throughput approach to all-inorganic metalens manufacturing using a single step nanoimprint lithography process and titania nanoparticle-based inks. The process yields a refractive index of 1.9, lenses with critical dimensions below 60 nm, feature aspect ratios greater than 8, and efficiencies greater than 55% and consistent device performance across 15 lenses printed within 30 minutes. We further describe pathways to fabricating all-inorganic lenses with RI of 2.1.
