Abstract

Metasurfaces (MSs) offer us an efficient way to control electromagnetic wave polarization due to its capability of flexible wave manipulation and compact configurations. However, the design of dual-band polarization conversion MS with high angular stability is still a challenge, especially in transmission geometry. Here, we propose a dual-band linear-to-circular (LTC) polarization conversion MS with high angular stability by using an array of multi-resonance meta-atoms. The meta-atom consists of two outer double split-ring layers and a central bar layer with circle-slot and can realize circular polarization at two bands with high efficiency and angular stability. The MS can transform the x-polarized wave into right-hand circular polarization (RHCP) at lower band and left-hand circular polarization (LHCP) at higher band and an opposite role for the y-polarized wave. The results show that the MS operates with insertion loss less than 0.5 dB and 0.3 dB and axial ratio below 3 dB in the frequency range of 9.05-9.65 GHz and 12.55-13.1 GHz, respectively. Moreover, our MS is insensitive to the oblique incident waves and can operate at high performance with the incident angle less than 55°. The proposed MS provides a new avenue to design meta-devices with dual frequency property and also high angular stability.
