In a classical metasurface-based holographic display system, a clear holographic reconstruction image can be obtained only in the back-focal-plane of the lens. However, when the receiving plane deviates from the focal plane, the reconstructed holographic image suffers from degradations that limit the quality of the images. Hence, we propose a novel metasurface-based holographic display to realize clearly continuous imaging within the specified position range by superimposing the meta-axilens phase. It can effectively relieve the alignment requirements of the imaging system. Firstly, the parameters and properties of all-dielectric meta-atom is analyzed. Then we compare and demonstrate two sets of metasurface-based optical elements (meta-axicon, meta-lens, and meta-axilens), made by silicon meta-atoms working at 610 nm. Furthermore, we show that the metasurface hologram with the axilens phase can form a series of the relatively clear holographic images away from the focal plane. Our proposal suggests a method to reconstruct holographic wavefront in different planes simultaneously, and one can find their application domain, such as 3D biological imaging, spectroscopy, optical information storage, and encryption.
