The electric control polarization modulator comprises a substrate, an NbSe2 film layer arranged on the substrate, a first electrode pair arranged on the upper end surface of the NbSe2 film layer and a second electrode pair arranged on the lower end surface of the substrate, wherein the NbSe2 film layer is formed by laminating a plurality of layers of NbSe2 films, the first electrode pair is composed of a first electrode and a second electrode, the first electrode and the second electrode are combined to form a metal annular electrode, the second electrode pair is composed of a third electrode and a fourth electrode, the third electrode and the fourth electrode are combined to form a metal annular electrode, and voltage is applied to the first electrode pair and the second electrode pair for electric control so as to actively modulate electromagnetic waves. According to the electronic control polarization modulator, the electronic control polarization modulator is prepared based on the NbSe2 film layer, the polarization state of electromagnetic waves from the visible light wave band to the millimeter wave band can be dynamically modulated, the modulation depth can be increased by applying an external electric field through the metal annular electrode, the modulation depth is made to be uniform, and the bandwidth for modulating the electromagnetic waves is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of modulation components, in particular to an electrically controlled polarization modulator based on a NbSe2-metal multilayer structure. Background technique [0002] Two-dimensional layered materials have very excellent optical properties. A special molecular composition of two-dimensional materials, based on the structure of the main atomic chain as the main axis, has obvious anisotropic properties. In addition, based on the piezoelectric effect of the material, along the When an additional bias voltage is applied in the direction of the main atomic chain, the main atomic chain can be stretched, so as to realize the active control of the material structure. Therefore, the polarization selection and modulation of the electromagnetic wave incident on the material can be realized through an external electric field. The polarization modulator of two-dimensional layered materials based on this characteristic h...
