We demonstrate an ultra-broadband all-optical terahertz modulator based on a semiconductor-integrated hybrid metamaterial. Under photoexcitation using near-infrared laser pulses, the semiconductor regions become highly conducting, causing a transition of the metamaterial from an array of dipole patch grid to a metal wire grating. This transition exhibits dramatically different transmission properties...
We present some of the recent projects at CINT that aim at active, tunable and nonlinear metamaterials. This is achieved by combining far and mid infrared planar metamaterials with semiconductors, superconductors and other materials.
In this paper, we present a review of experimental studies of terahertz plasmonic transmission properties through subwavelength holes patterned in conducting films. The frequency-dependent transmission spectrum reveals resonant behavior with an anomalously high peak transmission which is mediated by the excitation of surface plasmon polaritons. We show how terahertz time-domain spectroscopy has been...
We demonstrate broadening of fundamental resonance by successive insertion of rings inside of a split ring resonator (SRR) in a nested fashion. With the maximum inner rings, the resonance linewidth broadens by factor of four.
We report the detection of 11.5-nm radius polystyrene beads in an aqueous environment at a signal-to-noise-ratio of 18:1 by monitoring the split frequency steps of a 5.7-KHz-linewidth microlaser. The thermal-optical effect is also observed.
We report tunable resonances in terahertz metamaterials made from high-temperature superconducting films. Taking in account the temperature-dependent complex conductivity, we develop a theoretical model for correct interpretation of the observed resonance switching and frequency tuning.
We demonstrate thermal tuning of the inductive capacitive (LC) resonance in terahertz metamaterials made up of gold split-ring resonator (SRR) arrays on ferroelectric bulk Strontium Titanate (STO) substrates. Heating the metamaterial from temperature of 150 K to 425 K causes as high as 69% blue shift in metamaterial resonance frequency due to the change in refractive index of the substrate.
