In this paper, a three-layer chiral structure is proposed to achieve the conversion of its performance between broadband circular polarization asymmetric transmission and broadband circular dichroism by rotating the upper layer of the structure. For circular polarization asymmetric transmission, its asymmetric transmission parameters can reach a maximum of 0.89 and over 0.5 from 134 to 225 THz. For circular dichroism, the co-polarized transmission coefficient of right-handed circularly polarized wave is above 0.8 and the co-polarized transmission coefficient of left-handed circularly polarized wave is lower than 0.25 from 137 to 214 THz. The above results have not been reported in previous papers. This structure provides potential applications for circular polarization converters and circular polarizers.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
