چکیده

1 wileyonlinelibrary.com C O M M U N IC A IO N with specifi c symmetry to control the polarization state of the incoming light. Owing to the 2D feature of metasurfaces, we could degenerate the tensor χ from complex 3 × 3 matrix to 2 × 2 matrix. [ 10 ] The transmission response through a metasurface can be described by transmittance, polarization ellipses, averaged polarization rotation, and polarization conversion, [ 22–25 ] which can easily be determined from the frequencydependent 2 × 2 Jones matrix.

Highly tunable optical activity in planar achiral terahertz metamaterials.

Using terahertz time domain spectroscopy we demonstrate tunable polarization rotation and circular dichroism in intrinsically non-chiral planar terahertz metamaterials without twofold rotational symmetry. The observed effect is due to extrinsic chirality arising from the mutual orientation of the metamaterial plane and the propagation direction of the incident terahertz wave.

Microelectromechanically tunable multiband metamaterial with preserved isotropy

We experimentally demonstrate a micromachined reconfigurable metamaterial with polarization independent characteristics for multiple resonances in terahertz spectral region. The metamaterial unit cell consists of eight out-of-plane deformable microcantilevers placed at each corner of an octagon ring. The octagon shaped unit cell geometry provides the desired rotational symmetry, while the out-o...

Phase Characteristics of Subwavelength Antenna Elements for Efficient Design of Terahertz Frequency and Millimeter Wave Metasurfaces

In this paper the effects of subwavelength antenna resonator element dimensions on the anomalous reflection properties of metasurfaces operating in the millimeter wave and terahertz frequency regions are investigated. Such twodimensional structures are finding uses as flat optics in a variety of applications including beam steerers, reflectarrays, and broadband, polarization-independent radar a...

Polarization control using passive and active crossed graphene gratings.

Graphene gratings provide a promising route towards the miniaturization of THz metasurfaces and other photonic devices, chiefly due to remarkable optical properties of graphene. In this paper, we propose novel graphene nanostructures for passive and active control of the polarization state of THz waves. The proposed devices are composed of two crossed graphene gratings separated by an insulator...

Switchable Ultrathin Quarter-wave Plate in Terahertz Using Active Phase-change Metasurface

Metamaterials open up various exotic means to control electromagnetic waves and among them polarization manipulations with metamaterials have attracted intense attention. As of today, static responses of resonators in metamaterials lead to a narrow-band and single-function operation. Extension of the working frequency relies on multilayer metamaterials or different unit cells, which hinder the ...
