研究目的
Investigating the tunability of terahertz metamaterials based on anapole excitation with graphene for reconfigurable sensors.
研究成果
The study demonstrates a reconfigurable sensor incorporating graphene and metamaterials with a high Q-factor, achieving strong tuning through graphene. The anapole mode's high Q-factor and the tunability of resonance frequency through graphene's disturbance of the destructive interference between toroidal and electric dipoles are highlighted. The research opens avenues for novel anapole-based active devices in the terahertz region.
研究不足
The study is limited by the non-radiative loss in the terahertz region, which results in a decrease of the Q-factor compared to microwave frequencies. Additionally, the tunability is slightly inferior when graphene is placed in the lateral gaps compared to the central gap.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involves designing a high Q-factor metamaterial showing anapole behaviors in the terahertz region, with tunability introduced through graphene. The finite-difference-time-domain (FDTD) software is used for simulation.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
A monolayer of graphene with a thickness of
3:3 nm is placed at the central gap or the side gaps of the metamaterial. List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
The metamaterial consists of gold with a thickness of 2 μm, and graphene is used for tunability.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The transmittance spectra are plotted to observe the blueshift of the resonance frequency and the amplitude changes by increasing the Fermi energy (Ef) of graphene.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The contributions of the five strongest multipole moments are calculated to clarify their utility in resonance formation.
