Atom tamers Top left: Schematic of how a metasurface shapes a single beam of light into multiple tightly focused beams in a single step. These beams form a series of optical tweezers to trap individual atoms into arrays with arbitrary geometry. Bottom left: Statue of Liberty pattern, assembled out of atoms trapped in metasurface-generated optical tweezers. Right: Image of a 600 × 600 array with 360,000 optical tweezers, generated with an especially designed and fabricated optical metasurface.
