Polarization regulation characteristics of reflected waves at the interface of double topological insulators

The property of reflective polarization on the surface of two 3D strong topological insulators was studied, obtaining the generalized necessary conditions required for the complete polarization conversion of linearly polarized light. By analyzing the reflectivity, cross reflectivity, and polarization conversion ratios of the interface of two topological insulators, we found that the model can realize the complete polarization conversion by using the existing topological insulator material, breaking through the limitation that the complete conversion requires a new small dielectric constant topological insulator material. The process can be verified by the Kerr rotation angle. Finally, we show the design method of polarization conversion devices to realize super strong angular stability. The polarization control capability of topological insulators can also be verified by Kerr effect. This work provides a theoretical basis for the application of topological insulators in polarized devices.
