摘要
设计了一种双波段太赫兹超材料增透膜结构,该增透膜采用层叠结构,即由两层金属-聚合物构成。通过数值计算得到了两层金属-聚合物结构金属表面的电场分布,分析了两波段超低反射产生的机理,并通过优化聚合物层的厚度与金属单元结构的尺寸,实现了在0.471 THz和1.560 THz两个频点处的超低反射,反射率最低分别为0.0028和0.0025,反射率在10%以内的带宽分别为0.26 THz和0.21 THz。研究结果为实现多波段太赫兹超材料增透膜应用提供了参考。
This paper presents the design of a dual-band terahertz metamaterial antireflection coating with a multilayered structure(two layers of metal-polyimide). The formation of the two low-reflectivity bands is analyzed by numerically calculating the electric field distributions on metal surfaces of the two layer of metal-polyimide structure. After adjusting the thickness of the polyimide layer and the size of the metal unit structure, ultra-low reflectivity is achieved with the minimum percentages of 0.0028 and 0.0025 at 0.471 and 1.560 THz, respectively(with <10% reflectivity for the bandwidths of 0.26 and 0.21 THz). The results provide a reference for the applications of multi-band terahertz metamaterial antireflection coatings.
