The present invention theoretical foundation and have the beneficial effect that:
Theoretical foundation:
Electromagnetic wave belongs to shear wave, and its electric vector, magnetic vector and wave vector direction meet the right-hand rule.Wherein, electric vector is Cause carrier collective motion in conductor and cause the main cause of dielectric polorization.Therefore, it can by incident electromagnetic wave and The ratio of reflection electromagnetic wave electric-field intensity defines reflectivity.Two mutually orthogonal polarizations can be decomposed into view of electromagnetic wave Direction, reflectivity can be written as the form of reflection matrix
Wherein
X, y are two mutually orthogonal linear polarization electromagnetic wave directions, and i, r represents incident electromagnetic wave and reflection electromagnetism respectively Ripple.RmnEqual to reflection electromagnetic wave m directions electric field component EmrWith incident electromagnetic wave n directions electric field component EniRatio,For phase Position.According to this definition RxyWith RxyBetween phase difference be
If incident electromagnetic wave is the linear polarization electromagnetic wave in y directions, then optical rotation rate PCR can be written as
RxyWhen=0, PCR=0, it is meant that the incident light of y directions polarization is after reflection without x directions polarised light, no polarization Transition effects.RyyWhen=0, PCR=1, it is meant that the incident light of y directions polarization without y directions polarised light, that is, owns after reflection Reflected light is x directions polarization, realizes 100% conversion efficiency of the linearly polarized light of mutually perpendicular direction.0<PCR<When 1, instead Penetrate light and contain two kinds of polarization direction components, be elliptically polarized light.Polarization is realized because PCR directly reflects flat plane antenna Level, therefore it is used as the main performance index of polarization converter.
Beneficial effects of the present invention:
This technology invention employs double-rod antenna structure, the number of overlay model is added, it is achieved thereby that broadband is wider The conversion for being mutually perpendicular to linearly polarized light, wavelength has been made for 7 μm -16 μm, centre wavelength turns for 9.58 μm of middle infrared polarization Parallel operation, the optical rotation rate of this middle infrared polarization converter has exceeded 80%, and bandwidth of operation reaches the 77% of centre wavelength, is More than twice of prior art.

Embodiment
Below in conjunction with the accompanying drawing in the embodiment of the present invention, the technical scheme in the embodiment of the present invention is carried out clear, complete Site preparation is described, it is clear that described embodiment is only a part of embodiment of the invention, rather than whole embodiments.It is based on Embodiment in the present invention, it is every other that those of ordinary skill in the art are obtained under the premise of creative work is not made Embodiment, belongs to the scope of protection of the invention.
Embodiment 1, as shown in FIG. 1 to 3, the 1mm × 1mm cell arrays being made up of multiple unit components, unit component Cycle be 5 μm, unit component substrate is the thickness 0.5mm highly doped silicon chip of n-type, and electron beam evaporation plating is used on silicon chip There is 0.3 μm of copper, plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition method (PECVD) is used above with 1.036 μm of titanium dioxide in copper film Silicon separation layer, 0.2 μm of the thickness topmost made using electron beam reticle and metal deposition, long 3.5 μm, 0.95 μm of width Double-rod antenna, the spacing between double-rod is 0.1 μm.
Fig. 4 gives the reflectance factor of reflected light y directions polarized component and the reflectance factor of x directions polarized component, and PCR value.As seen from the figure, in the range of centre wavelength is 9.58 μm of 7 μm -16 μm (19.2THz-43.4THz), polarization Rate PCR value is more than 80%.Bandwidth reaches the 77% of centre wavelength, and this performance is more than twice of prior art.In addition, 14.2 PCR at μm (A points), 9.8 μm (B points), 7 μm (C points) three peak values is close to 100%, it is meant that the incident light of these three frequencies Excite after incident light is absorbed by the antenna completely at the local plasmon resonance body in double-rod antenna, formant by the micro- of surface Micro-nano structure gives off the x directions linearly polarized light perpendicular to former polarization direction.Fig. 5~Fig. 7 is that tri- frequencies of A, B, C are corresponding respectively Electric Field Distribution.It can be seen that the corresponding response position of three frequencies and Electric Field Distribution are variant.This result shows, The result of the resonance mode for realizing that exactly three frequency spacing the are appropriate superposition of wideband polarization conversion.And in the prior art, L-type The relative bandwidth that antenna is excited in response range, only after two formants, therefore superposition is smaller.Exactly because the present invention is adopted With appropriate double-rod antenna structure, the number of overlay model is added, to be mutually perpendicular to line inclined it is achieved thereby that broadband is broader Shake the conversion of light.
