Abstract
A novel quad-polarization reconfigurable holographic artificial impedance surface that exploits the tunable dielectric permittivity of nematic liquid crystal is proposed. The arc-shaped strip is introduced and serves as the fundamental element, and further combined with holographic modulation, electromagnetic radiation at the terahertz band is realized. By partitioning the circular surface into several sectors, studies show that just two impedance values for each sector are enough to reconfigure among different polarizations. The presented demonstrator has a radius of 4.3λ 0, where λ 0 is the wavelength in free space at 1.25 THz, and is excited by a monopole. It can be dynamically reconfigured among vertical linear polarization, horizontal linear polarization, right-hand circular polarization, and left-hand circular polarization at the boresight.
