A terahertz constant frequency reconfigurable metasurface based on tunable electromagnetically induced transparency-like property was designed, whose transparency window frequency did not vary with Fermi energy. This structure was composed of two single-layer graphene resonators, namely, left double big rings (LDBRs) and right double small rings (RDSRs). An evident transparency window (EIT-like phenomenon) was caused by the near-field coupling between bright modes of the two resonators in the transmission spectrum, in which amplitude over 80% was acquired at 1.98 THz. By individually reconfiguring the Fermi energy of each resonator, the EIT-like effects, transparency window amplitude, modulation speed and group delay could be actively controlled while the frequency of EIT-like window remained constant. Significantly, the transparency window was fully modulated without changing the frequency, and the maximum modulation depth reached 78%. Furthermore, the modulation speed also increased because the total graphene area A was effectively reduced in the proposed structure. Compared with other metasurface structures, the modulation properties of the proposed structure showed higher performance while the EIT-like window frequency remained static. This research provides an alternative method for developing constant frequency reconfigurable modulation terahertz devices (such as optical switches and modulators), as well as a potential approach for miniaturization of terahertz devices.
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.
