摘要

A reflective beam splitter is proposed and verified.The unit cell of the beam splitter is composed of a metal pattern,a dielectric substrate,and a metallic ground.Each subarray structure of the device is composed of four unit cells,which are gradually rotated at 45°.The horizontal and vertical subarrays form a 4×4 gradient metasurface supercell.In the operating frequency band,the incident linearly polarized terahertz wave is reflected and divided into four beams of approximately equal power but different propagation directions.The proposed terahertz beam splitter based on metasurface has the advantages of small size,low cost and easy processing,and can be applied to terahertz stealth and imaging.
