Abstract
In this paper, a broadband and efficient three-layer Z-shaped reflective metasurface for linear polarization conversion is designed and six different modes of orbital angular momentum (OAM) waves are generated in the terahertz band. The designed metasurface consisted of several units, and it is divided into twelve regions. The phase difference is achieved by changing the structural parameters of the units, and then different modes of OAM waves are generated. The terahertz OAM waves with the modes of ±1, ±2, and ±3 are generated by metasurface with high efficiency and wide bandwidth. The results show that the designed metasurface could produce high purity terahertz OAM waves with six different modes, and the reflection amplitude of the metasurface unit is more than 0.9 in the frequency range of 1.0 THz to 1.8 THz. The generated OAM waves with the modes of ±1 and ±2 have a mode purity more than 90%. The designed metasurface has good wavefront control ability, which provides an effective method to generate multimode OAM waves.
