Abstract
In this work, we proposed a switchable metasurface based on phase transmission material of vanadium dioxide (VO2) with metal and insulation mode. Simulation results demonstrated that the metasurface can switch perfectly at frequencies of 1.89 THz and 2.67 THz from two perfect absorbing peaks to a reflecting peak and a transmitting peak. When VO2 serves as metal mode, there were two absorption peaks of 99.93% and 99.92% respectively. When VO2 serves as insulation mode, the reflection and transmission magnitudes were 92.50% and 90.50% respectively. Simultaneously, the structure was insensitive to the incident angle from the simulation result. The proposed metasurface could therefore provide potential application prospects for the terahertz band switcher or sensor.
期刊介绍:
Micro and Nanostructures is a journal disseminating the science and technology of micro-structures and nano-structures in materials and their devices, including individual and collective use of semiconductors, metals and insulators for the exploitation of their unique properties. The journal hosts papers dealing with fundamental and applied experimental research as well as theoretical studies. Fields of interest, including emerging ones, cover:
• Novel micro and nanostructures
• Nanomaterials (nanowires, nanodots, 2D materials ) and devices
• Synthetic heterostructures
• Plasmonics
• Micro and nano-defects in materials (semiconductor, metal and insulators)
• Surfaces and interfaces of thin films
In addition to Research Papers, the journal aims at publishing Topical Reviews providing insights into rapidly evolving or more mature fields. Written by leading researchers in their respective fields, those articles are commissioned by the Editorial Board.
