Abstract
Owing to the eigenstates of orbital angular momentum (OAM) are infinite and orthogonal to each other, OAM can improve communication capacity infinitely. In this paper, we propose a terahertz vortex beam generator on transmissive metasurfaces. When the y-polarized terahertz wave illuminates vertically to the metasurface along the -z direction, the proposed metasurface generates terahertz vortex beams with topological charges l = ±1, l = ±2 and l = ±3 at the frequency ranging from 0.3 THz to 0.9 THz. We study the far-field radiation, electric field phase, amplitude characteristics, and mode purity with different topological charges. The simulation results are in good agreements with the theoretical predictions.
