Abstract

The invention discloses a terahertz wave polarization beam splitter with polygonal liquid crystal pool structure. The beam splitter comprises a signal input end, a first signal output end, a second signal output end, a substrate, rectangular silicon waveguides, a closed polygonal silicon frame and liquid crystals, wherein the two rectangular silicon waveguides are arranged on the substrate in a centrosymmetric manner; the substrate is made of silica materials; the closed polygonal silicon frame is arranged between the two rectangular silicon waveguides; the liquid crystals are filled in the closed polygonal silicon frame; the signals are subjected to vertical incidence from the signal input end; and through coupling between the rectangular silicon waveguides and the liquid crystals, TE (transverse electric) waves are directly output from the first signal output end while TM (transverse magnetic) waves are output from the second signal output end. The beam splitter has the advantages of simple structure, high beam splitting rate, small dimension, low cost, convenience in preparation and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a beam splitter, in particular to a terahertz wave polarizing beam splitter with a polygonal liquid crystal pool structure. Background technique [0002] Terahertz (THz) waves generally refer to electromagnetic radiation with a frequency in the range of 0.1THz to 10THz (wavelength in the range of 3mm to 30μm). From the perspective of frequency, this band is located between millimeter waves and infrared rays, and belongs to the far-infrared band; from the perspective of energy, this band is located between electrons and photons. In the electromagnetic spectrum, the infrared and microwave technologies on both sides of the terahertz band are very mature, but the terahertz technology is basically "blank". , is not completely suitable for microwave theory to study, thus forming what scientists usually call "terahertz gap". The terahertz wave band is located at the junction of electronics and photonics, and it is difficult to gener...
