Metalens, composed of arrays of nano-posts, is an ultrathin planar optical element used for constructing compact optical systems which can achieve high-performance optical imaging by wavefront modulating. However, the existing achromatic metalenses for circular polarization possess the problem of low focal efficiency, which is caused by the low polarization conversion efficiencies of the nano-posts. This problem hinders the practical application of the metalens. Topology optimization is an optimization-based design method that can effectively extend the degree of design freedom, allowing the phases and polarization conversion efficiencies of the nano-posts to be taken into account simultaneously in the optimization procedures. Therefore, it is used to find geometrical configurations of the nano-posts with suitable phase dispersions and maximized polarization conversion efficiencies. An achromatic metalens has a diameter of 40 μm. The average focal efficiency of this metalens is 53% in the spectrum of 531 nm to 780 nm by simulation, which is higher than the previously reported achromatic metalenses with average efficiencies of 20~36%. The result shows that the introduced method can effectively improve the focal efficiency of the broadband achromatic metalens.
