Problems solved by technology

There are many traditional polarization conversion principles, such as Faraday effect and birefringence principle, but the polarization conversion devices realized by these principles all show certain shortcomings: very large thickness and complex structure
At present, the research on metamaterials at home and abroad is still in its infancy, and there are still many problems to be solved, such as the problem of working bandwidth and efficiency

Abstract

A terahertz reflective polarization converter based on a Z-type metasurface belongs to the technical field of electromagnetic wave full vector transmission control devices. The present invention includes a substrate dielectric substrate and a top metal chiral structure layer and a bottom metal layer respectively arranged on the upper and lower surfaces of the substrate dielectric substrate. It is characterized in that the metal chiral structure layer is provided with periodic orthogonal Arranged rectangular resonant units, each resonant unit is provided with a Z-shaped metal resonant structure, the Z-shaped metal resonant structure is composed of a central line and two side arms respectively arranged at both ends of the central line and perpendicular to the central line, The two side arms are respectively arranged on both sides of the central line and are electrically connected to the central line, and the included angle between the central line and one side of the rectangular resonant unit is 30°. The invention can realize the polarization deflection of the reflected wave in an ultra-wide frequency band, not only can realize the 90-degree polarization deflection of the linearly polarized wave, but also can realize the polarization deflection from the linearly polarized wave to the circularly polarized wave.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of electromagnetic wave full-vector transmission control devices, and relates to a reflective terahertz linear polarization / left-handed and right-handed circular polarizer. Background technique [0002] Polarization converter is a very important device in the application of electromagnetic wave propagation. There are many traditional polarization conversion principles, such as Faraday effect and birefringence principle, but the polarization conversion devices realized by using these principles all show certain shortcomings: very large thickness and complex structure. [0003] Metamaterial refers to an artificial material whose characteristic scale is much smaller than the working wavelength, which can realize many functions that cannot be realized by natural materials, such as negative refraction, stealth materials and super-resolution imaging. To realize the macro-control of electromagnetic waves, the curr...
