Problems solved by technology

At present, most terahertz absorbing devices can perfectly realize the perfect absorption of terahertz waves in a single specific band, but at the same time, they can only absorb for a single specific terahertz wave frequency, and their center frequency positions cannot be adjusted. This greatly limits the practical application range of terahertz absorbers

Abstract

The present invention is an electrical / optical tunable terahertz dual-frequency absorber based on vanadium dioxide, which is mainly characterized by comprising a metal substrate, a high-resistance silicon layer on the metal substrate, and a high-resistance silicon layer fixed on the surface of the high-resistance silicon layer. A two-dimensional array, each array unit includes a small-sized square split-ring metal structure, a large-sized square split-ring metal structure, 2 phase change pads and 1 lead. The upper phase change gasket is located at the opening of the small-sized square split ring metal structure on the upper side of the lead in the unit, and the lower phase change gasket is located at the opening of the large-sized square split ring metal structure on the lower side of the lead in the unit. One electrode is fixed on each side of the two-dimensional array, and the positive and negative electrodes of the DC power supply are respectively connected. There are two kinds of tuning trigger modes of the absorber, electrical triggering and laser triggering. The invention can realize the fast and effective tuning of the terahertz dual-frequency absorber by electricity / optics, does not need to tediously replace the terahertz absorber with different absorption frequencies, is suitable for different occasions, and is simple to operate.

Description

(1) Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of terahertz, in particular to an electrical / optical tunable terahertz dual-frequency absorber based on phase change materials. (2) Background technology [0002] Terahertz (Terahertz, THz for short) refers to electromagnetic waves with a frequency range of 0.1THz to 10THz between microwave and infrared spectrum (1THz=10 12 Hz), terahertz (terahertz: THz) electromagnetic waves have the advantages of good security, high spectral information content, strong penetration and wide frequency bandwidth, etc., and have extremely broad application prospects in communications, biomedicine, material identification, and national defense and military. Therefore, studying the special band of THz is of great value for exploring the interaction between electromagnetic fields and matter, and developing corresponding functional devices and application technologies. However, due to the lack of current terahertz devices, t...
