Abstract
We propose a metasurface based on hybrid phase change materials GeTe and vanadium dioxide (VO2), which can manipulate the transmission /reflection /absorption of terahertz waves independently. By changing the external temperature from 25°C to 160°C, the function of this structure can be dramatically changed. When VO2 is in a dielectric state (i.e. 25°C), the designed structure behaves as a transmission-mode terahertz vortex beams manipulator. When VO2 is in a dielectric state (i.e. 68°C), the proposed structure serves as a reflection-mode terahertz vortex beams controller. When GeTe is in crystalline state (i.e. 160°C), the designed structure becomes as a terahertz perfect absorber at a frequency of 1.98THz within the incident angle of 30°. The proposed structure provides a new method toward the use of multifunctional terahertz devices for their potential in applications including terahertz wireless communication and detection.
