Abstract
We experimentally demonstrate a liquid crystal (LC)-integrated EIT metasurface for active THz polarization conversion and asymmetric transmission. By controlling the LC orientation under static magnetic field anchoring and an adjustable electric field, the device realizes the active control from the OFF state to the ON state, corresponding to the orthogonal polarization excitation modes of the EIT metasurface. Furthermore, based on the different polarization responses at forward and backward incidences, we achieve asymmetric transmission at the EIT peak and two nearby resonances, with its isolation actively manipulated by the external electric field. This study on dynamic polarization conversion and asymmetric transmission by a LC-integrated metasurface offers a promising route for active THz devices, applicable to THz communication, switching, and sensing systems.
