A simple design of broadband cross-polarization converter for the THz frequency range

Tóm tắt

A broadband and lightweight polarization converter is proposed for applications in the THz frequency region. The proposed design has a metasurface structure with the dielectric layer modified to a hollow structure to obtain a lightweight design. The unit cell consists of two opposite arcs resonator patches and a continuous metal patch separated by the polyimide substrate layer. The simulated results indicate that the proposed polarized converter achieves a polarization conversion ratio above 93% in the frequency range from 1.6 THz to 5.8 THz with a relative bandwidth of 113.5%.
