Especially the symmetric axes u is just the angle bisector of the right angle between the positive x- and y-axes, and this indicates that the x and y axes are completely symmetrical in the metasurface structure, so [t.sub.yy] = [t.sub.xx], [t.sub.xy] = [t.sub.yx], and the same LP-to-CP polarization conversion can be realized at x- and y-polarized incidences.
