The blood brain barrier prevents traditional antitumor drugs from entering intracranial tumors through the blood. Tumor hyperthermia is carried out by precisely delivering photo-thermal nano-particles to a tumor area through a drug delivery pipeline wrapped in a metal needle head through craniocerebral perforation, and then irradiating the tumor absorbing the nano-particles through a light guide system. The nanoparticle absorbs infrared light and rapidly heats up to kill tumor cells. Conventional light guide systems require a conventional lens mounted on the end face of the light guide waveguide to disperse the infrared light. However, the conventional lens has disadvantages in terms of large volume, complex structure, difficulty in integration, and the like.
Optical supersurfaces are rapidly emerging and become a dominant way of achieving miniaturized, planarized optics. Optical supersurfaces have been shown to be based on supersurface axicon lenses, blazed gratings, polarizers, holographic dryplates and planar lenses. The continuous 2 pi phase varying supersurface enables single layer aplanatic superlenses. At the same time, achromatic supersurfaces are also used for white light imaging.
