Abstract

The invention discloses a soft terahertz wave modulator which comprises a dielectric substrate (1) and an electromagnetic resonator array (2) adhered to the surface of the dielectric substrate (1), wherein the dielectric substrate (1) is made from a soft dielectric material-polyimide, called PI for short; the electromagnetic resonator array (2) comprises a plurality of electromagnetic resonator units; each electromagnetic resonator unit is formed by a VO2 or V2O5 nanofilm deposited on the surface of the dielectric substrate (1); and the thickness of each nanofilm is 100-600 nm. The invention provides a novel soft substrate-based terahertz wave modulator which is simple to manufacture, easy to control, stable, reliable and low in luminous power, and an application basis is provided for a novel soft substrate integrated circuit device.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the fields of terahertz wireless communication, detection and imaging, and in particular relates to a flexible terahertz wave modulator. Background technique [0002] Terahertz (THz) waves (electromagnetic waves with frequencies in the 0.1-10THz band) are at a special position between millimeter waves and infrared rays, and are the last empty band in the electromagnetic spectrum. Compared with electromagnetic waves of other wavebands, terahertz waves have the characteristics of low photon energy and strong penetrating power, which have brought far-reaching influence to the fields of communications, military, security inspection, and medicine. To promote the further development and practical application of terahertz technology, it is not only necessary to provide a good solution to reliable and stable THz sources, high sensitivity and high signal-to-noise ratio THz detectors, but also to provide high-performance, highly integrated, a...
