Embodiment Construction

[0042] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the present invention, but not to limit the present invention. In addition, it should be noted that, for the convenience of description, only some structures related to the present invention are shown in the drawings but not all structures.

[0043] Terahertz waves are electromagnetic waves with a frequency between 0.1-10 THz (corresponding to a wavelength of 30-3000 μm). Terahertz waves have the following unique properties: 1) low photon energy, suitable for biopsy of biological tissues; 2) skeletal vibration and rotational energy levels of many biomolecules and condensed matter, as well as intermolecular interaction energy levels (hydrogen bonds, etc.) are in the terahertz frequency band; 3) many non-metallic and non-polar materials have small absorp...

Abstract

The invention discloses an adjustable tera-hertz wavefront modulator and a preparation method thereof. The tera-hertz wavefront modulator comprises a first substrate and a second substrate which are oppositely arranged, a sub-wavelength wire grid interdigital electrode, a metal hypersurface, a first alignment layer, a second alignment layer and a liquid crystal layer, the metal hypersurface comprises a multiple embedding structures, each embedding structure comprises an external sealing ring and an internal split ring, the first alignment layer and the second alignment layer have the same alignment direction, the alignment direction is perpendicular to the grating vector direction of the wire grid of the sub-wavelength wire grid interdigital electrode, and the liquid crystal layer is arranged between the first and second alignment layers. The initial deflection directions of liquid crystals in the liquid crystal layer are controlled through the first and second alignment layers, the deflection directions of the liquid crystals in the liquid crystal layers under the action of an electric field effect are controlled through the sub-wavelength wire grid interdigital electrode and themetal hypersurface to ensure the polarization selectivity and high permeability within a full tera-hertz frequency range, and a multifunctional tera-hertz wavefront dynamic modulator is ensured to beachieved.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to terahertz optoelectronic technology, and in particular to a terahertz wavefront modulator and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] Terahertz waves are electromagnetic waves with a frequency between 0.1-10THz (corresponding to a wavelength of 30-3000μm). Due to their unique properties, terahertz technology has broad application prospects in many fields such as security inspection, biomedicine, and high-speed wireless communication. . Compared with terahertz sources and detectors, high-performance photonic devices for transmitting and controlling terahertz waves are still in their infancy, especially dynamically tunable terahertz devices. [0003] In recent years, liquid crystal materials have been widely used in the development of tunable terahertz modulators, such as phase shifters, wave plates, and vortex light generators, due to their broadband electrically controlled birefringe...
