摘要
We propose the design of anisotropic metamaterials with cascading meta-atoms.Each meta-atom array behaves as an impedance-tuned interface and dramatically modifies the complex reflection and transmission coefficients.By engineering the frequency-dependent impedances,the reflection phase difference along the two axes of anisotropic metamaterials approximates to a constant in a wide range.We numerically demonstrate the proposed anisotropic metamaterials can accomplish achromatic polarization transformation from 0.5 THz to 3.1 THz.The polarization conversion ratio is higher than 80%,which exhibits excellent agreements with the theoretical calculation.Such design is scalable to other bands and can provide helpful guidance in broadband devices design.
