Abstract

The invention discloses a multifunctional polarization adjusting component based on a three-dimensional composite structural unit. A surface of a metal film has multiple periodically arranged three-dimensional T-shaped structural units; the three-dimensional T-shaped structural units include a first structure and a second structure which are both square tile-shaped structures, and the first structure and the second structure are vertically arranged and spaced apart to form an approximately T-shaped structure; a first frequency band has the quarter-wave plate function, a second frequency band has the half-wave plate function, and the first frequency is lower than the second frequency. Similarly, the multi-functional polarization adjusting component based on the three-dimensional composite structural unit is disclosed, a first frequency band has the half-wave plate function, and a second frequency band has the quarter-wave plate function. The adjusting component is advantaged in that thecomposite structural unit can be utilized to realize different optical functions in different working frequency bands in the infrared band to further promote miniaturization and integration of an optical component.
