Abstract
In this paper, an active dual-control electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) analog is realized by using vanadium dioxide (VO2) metasurface on a sapphire substrate. The unit cell of the metasurface is a composite-split-ring-resonator (CSRR) composed of two resonators, one of which containing gold pattern and VO2 is named as VSRR and the other containing two T-type resonators is called TTR. The resonant frequency of VSRR and that of TTR are located at 0.43 and 0.75 THz, respectively. While, the CSRR have two resonant frequencies at 0.39 and 0.72 THz, and an EIT-like band has a central frequency at 0.56 THz. When the metasurface is electrically stimulated, the insulator-to-metal-transition (IMT) of VO2 can result in the reconstruction of the metasurface. Therefore, the EIT resonance can be controlled by bias voltages. At central frequency of 0.56 THz, a modulation depth of 87.7% and a group delay of 2.7 ps are obtained. The EIT mechanism is further explained by using a coupled Lorentz model, and theoretical calculation and simulation show good agreement with the experiment. Moreover, by mechanically adjusting the incidence angle, the adjustable EIT-like phenomenon is also observed and the modulation depth achieves 73%. This work paves a way for the development of THz modulators, switches, and slow light devices.
