Tunable THz response in cobalt ferrite via magnetic field modulation
Despite significant advancements in terahertz (THz) generation and detection technologies, the practical deployment of portable THz systems remains constrained by existing modulator limitations, particularly stringent temperature requirements, inefficient thermal management, and high power consumption. Here, we demonstrate a breakthrough in magnetically controlled THz modulation using a CoFe2O4/MgO/F-Mica composite structure. The tunable optical response and dielectric properties of the composite under varying magnetic fields were systematically investigated via THz time-domain spectroscopy. Experimental results revealed a magnetic field-dependent THz transmission attenuation, with systematic suppression of transmission spectra proportional to the applied magnetic field intensity. A theoretical model accounting for external magnetic field variations was proposed, which agrees well with the experimental results regarding the imaginary component. Remarkably, the composite material realizes phase modulation simultaneously under magnetic field. This exceptional magnetic responsiveness significantly broadens the application potential of ferrites in the THz regime. These findings provide critical insights for designing tunable multifunctional THz magnetic devices in 6G communications, medical diagnostics, and nondestructive testing applications.
期刊介绍:
Applied Physics Letters (APL) features concise, up-to-date reports on significant new findings in applied physics. Emphasizing rapid dissemination of key data and new physical insights, APL offers prompt publication of new experimental and theoretical papers reporting applications of physics phenomena to all branches of science, engineering, and modern technology.
In addition to regular articles, the journal also publishes invited Fast Track, Perspectives, and in-depth Editorials which report on cutting-edge areas in applied physics.
APL Perspectives are forward-looking invited letters which highlight recent developments or discoveries. Emphasis is placed on very recent developments, potentially disruptive technologies, open questions and possible solutions. They also include a mini-roadmap detailing where the community should direct efforts in order for the phenomena to be viable for application and the challenges associated with meeting that performance threshold. Perspectives are characterized by personal viewpoints and opinions of recognized experts in the field.
Fast Track articles are invited original research articles that report results that are particularly novel and important or provide a significant advancement in an emerging field. Because of the urgency and scientific importance of the work, the peer review process is accelerated. If, during the review process, it becomes apparent that the paper does not meet the Fast Track criterion, it is returned to a normal track.
