Abstract

The invention discloses a metamaterial modulator which comprises a surface layer, a graphene layer, a flexible dielectric layer and a silicon rectangular strip structure substrate layer which are arranged from top to bottom. A silicon rectangular strip structure is etched on a silicon substrate to form an all-dielectric metamaterial, resonance is generated through interaction of the silicon rectangular strip structure and terahertz waves, the conductivity of the graphene layer is changed through an excitation mode of laser incidence or voltage application, and therefore optical / electric regulation and control over the terahertz waves are achieved. The characteristic of low loss of the all-dielectric material is utilized, so that higher modulation depth can be realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a terahertz wave signal modulator, which is one of the key functional devices in the technical field of terahertz communication, in particular to a novel ultrahigh-sensitivity dynamic modulation terahertz wave metamaterial modulator. Background technique [0002] Metamaterials are artificial microstructures with subwavelength sizes that are periodically arranged, and have unique electromagnetic properties that are not available in natural materials. The geometry of the artificially designed cell structure has a unique optical response to electromagnetic waves. In recent years, metamaterials have become a hot spot in the development of unconventional optical devices. With people's pursuit of more diverse functions, the functional diversification of metamaterials continues to expand to the field of dynamic adjustment. Optical / electrical regulation based on the combination of graphene and metamaterials is a key area for enhancin...
