1. A light-emitting apparatus comprising:
a light-emitting layer for emitting light; and
an optical-transformation layer coupled to the light-emitting layer, the optical-transformation layer comprising one or more optical-transformation units, each optical-transformation unit comprising a metasurface for adjusting one or more parameters of the light emitted from the light-emitting layer,
wherein the light-emitting layer comprises one or more light-emitting units;
wherein the optical-transformation layer comprises a housing comprising one or more receptacles for receiving the one or more metasurfaces; and
wherein the one or more receptacles are at locations corresponding to those of the one or more light-emitting units for aligning the one or more metasurfaces with the one or more light-emitting units.
