Abstract
An optically rewritable and electrically erasable terahertz (THz) wavefront modulator based on indium oxide (In2O3) and DMSO-doped PEDOT:PSS is proposed. The modulator has a three-layer structure of In2O3/PEDOT:PSS/quartz, which can weaken the THz transmission under the action of light excitation. Optically written THz Fresnel plates, which can focus the input Gaussian beam into a point, were realized. After optical excitation, the function of the device reduces slowly if it is stored in the room environment. However, the function can be stored for a long time if it is encapsulated in the nitrogen environment. If a bias voltage of 22 V is applied on the device, the function of the device can be erased in 10 seconds. The new function can be written into the device after wiping. Experiments on THz rewritable holographic devices are carried out to show the validity of this approach. This method can provide new devices for THz wavefront modulation and develop tunable optical imaging elements.
