Embodiment Construction
[0037] The structure of the terahertz surface plasmon wave optical modulator of the present invention includes an intrinsic semiconductor wafer whose plasma frequency is in the terahertz band when the plasma frequency is close to normal temperature, two blades placed in parallel, a continuous wave laser, a laser modulator and a temperature control device. The two blades are perpendicular to the intrinsic semiconductor wafer, with the cutting edges facing down and keeping a certain distance from the semiconductor surface. The distance between the two blades is smaller than the propagation distance of the maximum frequency terahertz surface plasmon wave on the semiconductor surface under laser irradiation. The thickness of the intrinsic semiconductor wafer is greater than the attenuation distance of the minimum frequency terahertz surface plasmon wave in the semiconductor. The temperature controller is closely attached to the lower surface of the intrinsic semiconductor wafer, ...
