Abstract

A near-perfect dual-band circular polarizer based on bilayer twisted, single split-ring resonator structure asymmetric chiral metamaterial was proposed and investigated. The simple bilayer structure with a 90° twisted angle allows for equalizing the orthogonal components of the electric field at the output interface with a 90° phase difference for a y-polarized wave propagating along the backward (z) direction. It is found that right- and left-hand circular polarization are realized in transmissions at 7.8 and 10.1 GHz, respectively. Experiments agree well with numerical simulations, which exhibit that the polarization extinction ratio is more than 30 dB at the resonant frequencies. Further, the simple design also can be operated at the terahertz range by scaling down the geometrical parameters of the unit cell.
