Abstract
Broadband and switchable versatile polarization metamaterial is crucial in the applications of imaging, sensing and communication, especially in the terahertz frequency. Here, we investigated versatile polarization manipulation in a hybrid terahertz metamaterial with bilayer rectangular rods and a complementary vanadium dioxide (VO2) layer. The VO2 phase transition enables a flexible switching from dual-band asymmetric transmission to dual-band reflective half-wave plate. The full width half maximum (FWHM) bandwidths of dual-band asymmetric transmission are 0.77 and 0.21 THz, respectively. The polarization conversion ratio (PCR) of the reflective metamaterial is over 0.9 in the frequency ranges of 1.01-1.17 THz and 1.47-1.95 THz. Angular dependences of multiple polarization properties are studied. The proposed switchable polarization metamaterial is important to the development of multifunctional polarization devices and multichannel polarization detection.
