Abstract
Dynamic manipulation of terahertz (THz) beams plays an important role in THz application systems. The PB metasurface provides an effective scheme for space separation and deflection of the spin beam. However, mirror symmetry locking of the conjugated spin states severely limits the versatility of the device. In this work, we demonstrate a liquid crystal (LC) cascaded bilayer metasurface that includes an LC layer, anisotropic metasurface, and PB metasurface. By controlling anisotropy and polarization conversion effects, dynamic spin asymmetric transmission is realized. Meanwhile, two different dynamic energy distribution processes are realized between the L and R state with the corresponding deflection side. The results show that the device achieves a large angular spatial dispersion within the frequency-angle scanning range of ±35° to ±75° corresponding to the broadband range of 0.6-1.1 THz. Moreover, it achieves a spin beam spatial separation with a maximum proportion of energy distribution greater than 26 dB, and the active modulation rate in the energy distribution process reaches 98 %. This work provides a dynamic THz spin conversion and efficient large-angle beam scanning, with important potentials in wavelength/polarization division multiplexing and frequency-scanning antenna for large-capacity THz wireless communication, radar, and imaging systems.
