Optical metasurfaces are thin‐layer subwavelength patterned structures that interact strongly with light. Metasurfaces demonstrate many useful properties of metamaterials with engineered resonant electric and magnetic optical responses combined with low losses of thin‐layer structures. Here we introduce the basic concepts of this rapidly growing research field that stem from earlier studies of frequency selective surfaces in radio physics, being enriched by the recent development of metadevices and subwavelength nanophotonics.
