Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of optical devices, in particular to a broadband transmissive infrared light modulator based on graphene plasma. Background technique

[0002] As a two-dimensional material, graphene is composed of a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb lattice structure. Its flexible and bendable characteristics enable it to be combined with a metasurface structure; and graphene has an ultra-wide control bandwidth (from near-infrared to terahertz), ultra-high carrier mobility can reach 200,000 cm 2 / (V×s), which makes it possible to realize broadband ultrafast optoelectronic devices. As the core device in the optical interconnection of chips, the optical modulator has a very important application prospect in the future. In recent years, research on graphene light modulators has been extensively studied by scholars at home and abroad.
