Specifically, as another implementation manner of this example, the thickness of the transparent substrate 10 is 1-60 mm, and the dielectric constant is 2-12. The thickness, size, dimension, shape and number of layers of the transparent substrate 10 disclosed in this embodiment can be selected according to the requirements of each application.

Taking the vanadium dioxide film as an example of the regulating unit 30, when the external temperature exceeds the phase transition temperature Tc, the vanadium dioxide is converted from a dielectric state to a conductive state, and the integral connection characteristic of the unit structure is changed, so that the switching effect on millimeter wave communication is realized aiming at the conversion of the original transmission state of the high-frequency communication signal to the shielding state.
In the manufacturing process, the regulating and controlling units 30 are nested in the transparent conductive array 20 and can also serve as a part of the transparent conductive array 20, and the sizes, the positions and the number of the regulating and controlling units 30 are reasonably distributed on the premise that the whole light transmittance of the transparent window is not affected, so that the electromagnetic characteristics of the whole surface of the transparent window are consistent, and the situation that local electromagnetic characteristics are different is avoided.

As shown in fig. 5 and 6, in another embodiment of the present application, it is disclosed that the transparent conductive array 20 may be etched into a plurality of composite units 21 arranged in an array. By arranging one conductive line at each of both ends of the transparent conductive array 20 in the lateral direction, conducting by an external voltage (V in fig. 6 indicates a voltage supplied by an external power source), and arranging a plurality of conductive wires 70 between the two conductive lines, the conductive wires 70 are arranged in a gap between two adjacent columns of the composite units 21, the conductive wires 70 are connected to the regulating units 30 at both sides from the lateral side, and the regulating units 30 are subjected to voltage or current excitation, thereby controlling the phase change of the regulating units 30. The wires 70 and the transparent conductive array 20 may be etched from a transparent conductive thin film layer.
For example, the adjusting and controlling unit 30 takes a vanadium dioxide film as an example, when the excitation voltage on the wire 70 is gradually loaded, so that the vanadium dioxide can be changed in phase, the dielectric state is changed into the conductive state, and the transmission of the high-frequency communication signal is changed from the transmission state into the shielding state, thereby changing the electromagnetic characteristic of the transparent window, and providing possibility for further deep and intelligent adjusting and controlling and modulating. As shown in fig. 7, the abscissa represents the frequency; the ordinate indicates the network parameter S21, which is the most commonly used network parameter in microwave and radio frequency circuits, S21 being an indicator describing the transmission characteristics of the circuit. The S21 parameter of the transparent window is obviously changed in the simulation and test states of no loading bias voltage and loading bias voltage on the visible lead 70, and the transparent window has obvious switching effect on 28GHz millimeter wave transmission or shielding.
