About
Chen Xu is a leading figure in the field of nanophotonics, with a core focus on metasurface optoelectronic integration and structured light generation. His most influential work, the 2021 paper "On‐Chip Generation of Structured Light Based on Metasurface Optoelectronic Integration," has garnered 88 citations, establishing a foundational approach for merging metasurfaces with on-chip platforms. Xu's major contribution lies in demonstrating how ultrathin, subwavelength-scale metasurfaces can be harnessed to generate complex structured light beams directly from integrated circuits, overcoming the bulkiness of traditional optical components. This breakthrough enables unprecedented control over wavefront, polarization, and orbital angular momentum at the chip level, with direct implications for high-capacity optical communications, quantum information processing, and advanced imaging. By bridging the gap between planar optics and active optoelectronics, Xu has paved the way for compact, multifunctional photonic devices that replace conventional lenses and holograms. His work is particularly notable for its practical impact, offering a scalable route toward next-generation integrated photonic systems that are both flat and highly functional.
