AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In existing programmable metasurface designs, the phase distributions of orthogonally polarized electromagnetic waves are coupled to each other, or programmability can only be achieved under specific polarizations. As a result, a single-polarization programmable metasurface can only provide one effective information transmission channel and cannot meet the needs of multi-task processing.

Method used

Design a dual-polarization independently controllable millimeter-wave programmable metasurface, employing PIN diodes, a metal structure, a dielectric substrate, and a metal backplane. By adjusting the on/off state of the PIN diodes under different polarizations, the reflected amplitudes of x- and y-polarized incident electromagnetic waves are made similar, while their phases differ by 180°. An independent control channel is provided through an FPGA to achieve independent control of electromagnetic waves with different polarizations.

Benefits of technology

It enables independent control of electromagnetic waves with different polarizations, extends the operating frequency of programmable metasurfaces to the millimeter-wave band, improves response speed and stability, has anisotropic and electrically reconfigurable characteristics, and can realize functions such as beam anomalous deflection and scanning.
