OPTOMECHANICAL MODULATOR 

This specification discusses a device which modulates, simultaneously or independently, the amplitude, polarization and phase of the electromagnetic radiation . This device has multiple metasurfaces, a spacer region between the metasurfaces, and an actuator for applying a force to at least one of the metasurfaces. The application of the force changes distance between at least two of the metasurfaces creating the tunability of the electromagnetic radiation.
