The application discloses a kind of modulation depth optical switches based on
plasmon-induced transparency in terahertz band, the switch includes: five-layer stack structure, from bottom to top in turn:
polyimide substrate layer, rectangular
graphene pattern layer,
polyimide intermediate layer, circular
graphene pattern layer on the intermediate layer, non-absorbing
dielectric cover layer.
Polyimide substrate plays a supporting role,
graphene pattern is coupled with incident light.Incident light is incident from the top of
chip, is transmitted to graphene the 2nd layer through cover layer, passes through the 2nd layer circular graphene, and occurs effect, is transmitted to intermediate layer medium through the 2nd layer circular graphene, after transmission through intermediate layer medium, again with
substrate surface rectangular graphene effect, finally from substrate transmission.Realize the on-off of terahertz waveband transmission
signal and amplitude adjustment effectively solve the technical defects of traditional terahertz
optical switch, such as low modulation depth,
slow response speed, single regulation mode and poor integration.
