Abstract
Most of the existing metasurfaces are effective for the incident wave with the specific circularly polarized (CP) or linearly polarized (LP) state, that is the polarization-sensitive metasurface. This drawback dramatically hinders the practical use of the metasurface. Herein, this paper presents a strategy of polarization-insensitive transmissive microwave metasurfaces to manipulate the incident wave with arbitrary CP and LP states. The metasurface consists of polarization-insensitive unit cells. For the left circularly polarized (LCP) and right circularly polarized (RCP) incident waves, the same abrupt phase covering 0° to 360° can be realized by combining the Pancharatnam–Berry (PB) and resonant phases. As the arbitrary LP wave can decompose into the LCP and RCP waves, metasurfaces consisting of designed unit cells are valid for any polarization states. The polarization-insensitive transmissive microwave metalens and orbital angular momentum multiplexing metasurface working at 23 GHz are devised for verification. Simulation and measurement results verify the availability of the approach. The proposed method is suitable for designing microwave-transmissive metasurfaces capable of polarization insensitivity.
