Abstract

The invention discloses a terahertz band reflective antenna based on an artificial microstructure combined with a transistor, which belongs to the field of antenna technology and electromagnetic functional devices. Design an artificial microstructure reflection array with frequency response to terahertz electromagnetic waves at a specific frequency point, and then use microelectronics processing technology to combine the array structure with transistors, and control the on-off of the transistors through an external voltage. Finally, the change of the scattering characteristics of the unit is realized by electronically changing the structural resonance mode, so as to realize the control of the reflection phase. The mechanism of its phase shift control is specifically that when the transistor is in the cut-off state, the resonant unit structure capacitor sheet presents a strong capacitive effect on the electric field component of the incident terahertz wave, and when the transistor is turned on, a connection is formed between the capacitor sheets, and the original capacitive effect disappears, due to the change of capacitance, the resonance changes, thus changing the reflection phase. It has the advantages of fast scanning speed, simple processing and low cost.
