Moving from diffractive optics to metalenses, novel tools for structuring light are provided for the integration in compact optical layouts. Here we propose new metaoptics designed for light shaping into structured beams implementing on-demand vectorial configurations. Different optical layouts are achieved in order to generate orbital angular momentum (OAM) vector beams with different shape and peculiarities.
