Abstract

Temporally modulated metamaterials have attracted significant attention recently due to their non-reciprocal and frequency converting properties. Here, a transparent, time-modulated metasurface that functions as a serrodyne frequency translator, is reported at X-band frequencies. With a simple biasing architecture, the metasurface provides electrically-tunable transmission phase that covers $360^\circ$. A sawtooth waveform is used to modulate the metasurface, allowing Doppler-like frequency translation. Two such metasurfaces can be cascaded together to achieve magnetless devices that perform either phase or amplitude non-reciprocity.
