Abstract
In this paper, an ultra-wideband (UWB) polarizer with high performance based on the metasurface is designed and demonstrated, which is composed of a dielectric substrate with a double-gap circular pattern and metal film. Multiple strong resonance points enable the design to achieve the conversion from incident linearly polarized waves to cross-polarized waves at 6.49–11.64 GHz, with a fractional bandwidth of 56.8% and a corresponding polarization conversion rate (PCR) of 90%. The PCR remains above 90% at 6.49–11.52 GHz when the electromagnetic wave is obliquely incident between 0° and 30°. Furthermore, the surface current distribution of the polarizer is discussed to explain the physical mechanism. The sample is fabricated for microwave validation. Compared with previous reports, the proposed polarizer has a larger bandwidth and higher efficiency and is expected to be used in microwave communications, antennas, radar cross section reduction, and other fields.
