Dual-band polarization angle independent 90° polarization rotator using chiral metamaterial

抄録

The polarization angle-independent, dual-band, 90° polarization rotator presented in this paper consisted of a bilayered chiral metamaterial composed of twisted capacity-loaded I-shaped electric field-coupled resonators in C4 symmetry. Simulated and measured results consistently demonstrated that the rotator exhibited extremely low loss and high polarization ratio under dual-band conditions. We also systematically investigated the dependence of the electromagnetic response of the loaded structure on the geometric parameters. The proposed simple, easily fabricated model of a chiral metamaterial may be used in further polarization rotator applications.
