Abstract
In this paper, we present a broadband perfect-reflective linear polarization-converting metamaterial, which achieves perfect-reflective linear polarization conversion over a broadband frequency range of 28.15 GHz–60.80 GHz, and the narrow-band perfect-polarization-converting peaks appearing at the high frequency of 67.121 GHz can be used for microwave solution concentration detection. The design consists of a surface metal resonator structure, a Roggers 5880 dielectric layer and a copper metal backing. The surface metal resonator is a combination of a circular open ring, a square open ring, and a centrally located cross-metal cross ring nested in a modified, highly anisotropic structure. The perfect polarization transition peak at the high frequency band can be used for the solution detection function, which can detect the concentration of salt solution, glucose solution, and alcohol solution. When the refractive index of the solution sample to be tested changes gradually from 1.0 to 1.4, the polarization conversion peak shows obvious frequency shift, and the peak polarization conversion rate is always kept above 99%. The polarization principle was analyzed using surface electromagnetic field distribution and related theories, and the sample structure was processed and tested. The designed super-surface polarization conversion structure has potential applications in the field of microwave detection and microwave communication.
