Abstract: The generalized Snell’ law is developed and modified for curved surface, and also the generalized GO. Based on which, we present a new beamshaping technology using the flat lens consists of phase shift structure (PSS), which can reshape the primary beam to that with arbitrary desired shape. The design procedure of the beamshaping flat lens (BSFL) is discussed in detail. Several examples are given to verify the method. Moreover, some potential applications are proposed.
