Terahertz metamaterial-induced multiple transparency windows through bright-bright mode couplings

Abstract

Metamaterials that offer optical control over multiple transparency windows have paved the way for advancements in terahertz (THz) modulation technology. In this paper, we have conducted a systematic investigation into the interaction between THz waves and “bright” split-ring resonators (SRRs). Through manipulation of the quantity and spatial arrangement of SRRs within metamaterial structures, we have successfully induced multiple transparency windows within the THz spectrum. Furthermore, we have explored the transmitted switching ratio of both the designed single transparency window and double resonance frequency bands as a function of the azimuthal angle of the THz wave. This work offers a general strategy for designing the number of electromagnetically induced transparency windows and holds the potential for realizing multichannel memories.
