A semianalytically synthesized ultrathin photolithographic metagrating for sub-THz beam splitting
Compact and efficient devices for radiation beam manipulation are in increasing demand by terahertz technologies. Herein, we introduce an ultrathin metal-polymer photolithographic metagrating operating as a transmissive beam splitter with a wide refraction angle of 58∘ at sub-THz frequencies. Harnessing this recently proposed complex media platform, composed of sparse periodic arrays of meta-atoms, constraints of conventional metasurfaces with densely packed unit cells can be alleviated. The devised splitter, synthesized semianalytically and demonstrated experimentally, features deeply subwavelength thickness due to the unique manufacturing process employed, serving as a promising alternative to thick waveguide-based metagratings previously reported for this frequency range.
期刊介绍:
This journal establishes a dedicated channel for physicists, material scientists, chemists, engineers and computer scientists who are interested in photonics and nanostructures, and especially in research related to photonic crystals, photonic band gaps and metamaterials. The Journal sheds light on the latest developments in this growing field of science that will see the emergence of faster telecommunications and ultimately computers that use light instead of electrons to connect components.
