Problems solved by technology

However, most of the existing metasurfaces are passive metasurfaces. Once the constituent materials, pattern shape, size, repetition period, and arrangement form of the metasurface constituent units are determined, their functions will be solidified and cannot be dynamically adjusted. In practical applications have great limitations

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of electromagnetic wave modulation, in particular to an adjustable broadband polarization conversion and dynamic geometric phase modulation device based on phase-change materials. Background technique [0002] Traditional polarization conversion is mainly based on the anisotropy and Brewster effect of natural materials, while traditional phase modulation introduces different phase accumulations in different electromagnetic wave transmission paths through traditional materials. Polarization conversion and phase modulation elements based on traditional materials are commonly used in various optical systems and devices. However, most of the polarization conversion and phase modulation elements based on conventional materials have relatively narrow bandwidth due to the phase delay introduced by conventional materials that is dependent on the incident wavelength. Although broadband polarization conversion and phase modula...
