Abstract

The invention relates to a multi-channel wave splitter based on a broadband slow-wave system. The multi-channel wave splitter comprises a dielectric slab and a thin metal-insulator-metal (MIM) grating structure on the dielectric slab. The MIM grating structure is composed of two metal grating structure bodies and an insulator, wherein rectangular or trapezoid periodic grooves are etched in the inner sides of the metal grating structure bodies. The thickness of each metal grating structure body is smaller than 1% of an operating wavelength. In shape, the grooves of the metal grating structure bodies are each composed of a long and straight transverse groove body and a plurality of short and straight longitudinal groove bodies in a vertical intersection mode, wherein the short and straight longitudinal groove bodies are vertically distributed at equal intervals, the lengths of the short and straight longitudinal groove bodies gradually change, and the geometric parameters such as the depths, the widths and/or the periods of the groove bodies gradually change. The insulator is air or any other insulating medium. The MIM grating structure aims to enable electromagnetic waves at different frequencies to be restrained in the grooves in different positions, and being arranged on the dielectric slab, the MIM grating structure can be conveniently integrated with active devices.
