Abstract
A reconfigurable ultra-wideband multimode terahertz OAM antenna array based on graphene and vanadium dioxide (VO2) is presented in this paper. The uniform circular array (UCA) composed of circularly polarized (CP) antennas, which include a ring radiation patch, a parasitic patch, a perovskite substrate and an irregular VO2 ground plane. The radiation patch is covered with a layer of graphene, by changing the chemical potential of graphene, the working bandwidth and axial ratio bandwidth of the antenna can be changed. By changing the phase state of VO2 (metal state / insulation state) to control the working state of the antenna. The impedance bandwidth (IBW) of the CP antenna proposed is 115.09% (1.73–6.42 THz), the axial ratio bandwidth (ARBW) is 43.97% (2.36–3.69 THz). Using the CP antenna unit can simplify the complex feed network, and only feeding the equal amplitude and equal phase excitation can realize the vortex wave. Changing the number and rotation angle of the antenna unit can realize multimode vortex waves with the l= 0, ±1, ±2, ±3, the purity is approximately 1, respectively. The proposed UCA has excellent application prospect in the 6G communication.
