Multi-band transmissions of chiral metamaterials based on Fabry-Perot like resonators.

In this paper, a multi-layered metallic structure is proposed, which consists of split-ring resonators on both sides of two dielectric substrates. Numerical results reveal that the structure realizes a high magnitude of 0.94, three bands and broadband (more than 8 GHz) asymmetric transmission for linearly polarized wave. These properties are not observed in previous works. In order to better know these transmission properties, the Fabry-Perot like resonance model has been introduced to analyze the enhancement mechanism of asymmetric transmission in the multi-layered structure. The physical mechanism of linearly polarized wave conversion and asymmetric transmission based on electric fields and currents distribution is also analyzed in detail, respectively.

Asymmetric transmission of linearly and circularly polarized waves in metamaterial due to symmetry-breaking

A two-dimensional chiral structure with an h-shape and H-shape on opposing sides of a dielectric layer is proposed that can realize simultaneously dual-band asymmetric transmission of linearly and circularly polarized waves in the near-infrared band. Meanwhile, the structure realizes a maximum asymmetric transmission of 0.56 and 0.30 for linearly and circularly polarized waves, respectively, at the resonant frequency. These results have been analyzed with simulations in detail. The physical mechanism of linearly and circularly polarized wave transmission and conversion based on current distribution and electric fields is also investigated.
