Abstract

In this paper, an ultra-compact T-shaped component is proposed in order to achieve a spoof surface plasmon polariton (SSPPs) dual-functional device with beam steering and multiple band-rejection filtering functions. The newly introduced T-shaped component provides an excellent multiple band-rejection filter response when combined with the SSPP transmission line (TL), and can be regarded as an excellent alternative to metamaterial particles to conceive multi-band rejection of spoof SPP waves. Multi-band rejection filters are designed by introducing different intervals among the symmetric T-shaped components. Furthermore, we designed a compact SSPP beam-steering device integrated with a multiple band-rejection filtering function. The multiple band-rejection integrated beam-steering device can also be realized by incorporating different intervals among the T-shaped components, as mentioned in the case of linear filters. Integration of the SSPP beam-steering device and band-rejection filter offers compact areas and controllable passband features, which broadens the application range of SSPPs. In conclusion, the proposed T-shaped component is an outstanding addition toward the advancement of highly efficient ultra-compact dual-functional plasmonic devices.
