Abstract
Graphene, an innovated 2D material with atomic thickness, is a very promising candidate and has drawn great attentions in various applications. Graphene metasurface enables dynamic control of various wavefronts, achieving distinguished functionalities. The flexibility of graphene metasurface makes it possible to implement multifunctional devices with ease. In this work, a novel design of multifunctional graphene metasurface, which can combine the functionalities of generating and steering vortex waves, has been proposed. The multifunctional graphene metasurface consists of a large array of graphene reflective unit cells. Each unit cell is controlled independently by its size and external static gate voltage. By scrutinizing the reflective property of the graphene cell, the graphene metasurface is designed to realize multi-functionalities. Simulation results show that vortex wave can be generated and steered. This work can establish a methodology to design multifunctional graphene metasurfaces, and the tunability of graphene opens the gate to the design and fabrication of reconfigurable graphene devices.
