Abstract

Utilizing metasurface (MS), the transition between dual-peak electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) and dual-peak electromagnetically induced absorption (EIA) in four states has been proposed in the terahertz (THz) band with the incidence of a circularly polarized (CP) wave. Additionally, the phase-change material vanadium dioxide (VO2) and photosensitive material silicon (Si) have been adopted. The four state transitions can be achieved by adjusting the pump light and the temperature which is not affected by incident CP waves. With the incidence of the pump light, Si can transform from the insulating state to the metallic state. Similarly, when the temperature exceeds 68 °C, VO2 enters the metallic state. Two different dual-peak EIT (State 1 and State 2) accompanied by slow light effect can be observed by modulating the state of VO2 without the action of Si. However, once Si is in metallic state, two different states of dual-peak EIA (State 3 and State 4) are achieved by changing the state of VO2. Notably, the MS has the property of polarization insensitivity. The theoretical oscillator model and equivalent RLC-circuit model verify the feasibility of dual-peak EIT and EIA.
