Abstract
In this work, a broadband terahertz asymmetric transmission metamaterial is experimentally demonstrated for a linearly polarized wave. The measured transmission coefficient Tyx is larger than 0.6 from 0.55 to 0.82 THz, and reaches a peak value of 0.714 at 0.62 THz, while the transmission coefficient Txy is lower than 0.2 from 0.4 to 0.9 THz. The calculated asymmetric transmission parameter of the measurement ranges from 0.53 to 0.84 THz for magnitudes over 0.4. The peak value reached 0.65 at the frequency of 0.78 THz. The physical mechanism of the polarization conversion was also analyzed from the distributions of the surface currents and electric fields.
