Abstract

The authors demonstrate two types of non-reciprocal waveform-selective metasurfaces that control the level of reflectance, depending not only on the direction of the incident wave but also on the waveform, namely, on the pulse width. A capacitor-based waveform-selective metasurface exhibits strong reflectance for a short pulse compared to that for a continuous wave (CW) at the same frequency. In contrast, an inductor-based waveform-selective metasurface more strongly reflects a CW than a pulse. The difference between them is demonstrated to be more than 50% but is reduced for a wave propagating in the other direction. The concept of the authors' structures is expected to offer an additional degree of freedom with which to design non-reciprocal devices and applications.
