Abstract
The integration of active materials in terahertz (THz) metasurfaces is pivotal for the realization of functional device applications in diverse fields like sensing, imaging, communication, etc. In this context, ferroelectric materials endowed with tunable electro-optic properties have recently emerged as a novel candidate for achieving actively tuned THz metasurfaces. Here, we experimentally investigate temperature tuning of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) effects in a THz metasurface based on ferroelectric barium titanate (BaTiO3 (BTO)) thin film. We characterize tunable dielectric properties of the BTO thin film under variable temperatures (25 °C–100 °C) at THz frequencies by utilizing THz-time domain spectroscopy technique. Based on this aspect, we design a THz metasurface capable of displaying the EIT effect. THz transmissions through the metasurface sample are then probed for different applied temperatures. The EIT features undergo frequency shifts along with amplitude modulations owing to the temperature induced variations of the dielectric properties of the BTO thin film. A total red shift ∼27 GHz in EIT resonance dip is observed experimentally as the temperature increases from 25 °C to 100 °C. Therefore, we demonstrate utilities of ferroelectric platform toward the development of temperature tunable EIT metasurfaces.
