Abstract
The Faraday rotation effect of both the La: yttrium iron garnet (YIG) film and the YIG metasurface were experimentally and numerically investigated in the terahertz (THz) region. A THz magneto-optic polarization measurement system was used to observe the transmission, resonance, and magneto-optical effect of the La:YIG film and YIG metasurface. The THz artificial chirality and resonance localization of the helical metasurface generate the superchiral THz field, which enhances the THz magneto-optical effect of the YIG film. The results show that the Faraday effect of the YIG metasurface is about three times that of the pure YIG film, whose differential rotation angle increases from 8° to over 24°. This work achieves more sensitively active polarization control of THz waves, which is of great significance for THz polarization conversion, sensing, and non-reciprocal transmission.
