Abstract

In this paper, we proposed to use ultra-thin 3D metamaterials to manipulate the polarization of the transmitted electromagnetic waves. As an example, we designed a 3D metamaterial to serve as an ultra-thin linear-polarization converter, which overcomes the defects of bulky volume and narrow bandwidth of conventional polarization converters. Polarization selectivity and polarization convertibility are achieved simultaneously in the single-layer metamaterial. The physical mechanism is analyzed using reflection matrix and transmission matrix in details. Simulated cross-polarization and co-polarization conversions for TE and TM incident waves verify the polarization selectivity and polarization convertibility.
