We proposed a single metalens for fiber coupling within telecom bands. This proposed fiber coupler combined a single layer metalens and a Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) layer. Instead of traditional fiber collimators, which are bulky and require complex calibration processes, we used a metalens for the focusing of incident and outgoing lasers and achieve achromatic aberration over a certain wavelength band. The focal length was kept as 514.9 μm with a 6.92-μm tolerance. The average coupling efficiency of an achromatic lens was calculated as 0.43. The different phases were produced with the nanopillar element structures. The aim is to provide an idea for creating a more convenient, integrated and efficient way of coupling fiber optics. This approach can also be applied to the design of achromatic lenses in other wavelength regions.
