Quantum process tomography on holographic metasurfaces

Holographic metasurfaces and their applications have garnered significant attention owing to their role in polarization control. In this study, we demonstrate that the quantum properties of holographic metasurfaces can be obtained by quantum state tomography (QST) and quantum process tomography (QPT). We perform QST to obtain the experimental output states by extracting information from holograms encoded on the holographic metasurface, and develop a QPT-based method to estimate the quantum process of the metasurface. The theoretical output states derived from the estimated quantum process are in good agreement with the experimental output states, proving the effectiveness of our method. Our work not only provides theoretical and experimental analysis for understanding the quantum properties of holographic metasurfaces, but also paves the way for the application of holographic metasurfaces in quantum field.
