Embodiment 1

[0040] The hyperbolic metamaterial terahertz planar antenna involved in this embodiment has a three-dimensional structure as attached figure 1 shown. Its overall structure includes a ground plane 1 , a hyperbolic metamaterial structure layer 2 , a substrate 3 , and a radiation antenna 4 . The ground plate 1 is a metal layer made of gold with a uniform thickness, and its thickness is t 2 = 200nm. The hyperbolic metamaterial structure layer 2 is formed by alternate stacking of semiconductor layers 21 and dielectric layers 22 , the semiconductor layers 21 are formed of indium antimonide material, and the dielectric constant thereof can be calculated by the Drude model. The real part of the dielectric constant of the indium antimonide material is negative within a certain range of terahertz frequencies, and the imaginary part is small, so it meets the design requirements of hyperbolic metamaterials, and the loss generated in the terahertz band is also small. The dielectric laye...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of planar antennas, in particular to a terahertz planar antenna based on hyperbolic metamaterials. Background technique [0002] Terahertz waves refer to electromagnetic waves with a frequency of 0.1-10THz and corresponding wavelengths in the band of 3mm-30μm. It is between microwave and infrared visible light, and is in the transition field from electronics to photonics. Terahertz wave communication has great potential. Compared with microwave communication, terahertz communication has a wider bandwidth, so the communication transmission capacity is larger and the speed is faster; and terahertz communication has better confidentiality and anti-interference ability, so More reliable and secure communication can be performed. Compared with optical communication, terahertz waves have a longer wavelength and have a better ability to penetrate sand, dust and smog, enabling all-weather work. Therefore, teraher...
