▎ 摘  要

The concept of dual-band reconfigurable terahertz patch antenna using a graphene-stack-defined backing cavity is presented. The proposed antenna employs patch resonance based on backing cavity defined by interleaved graphene/Al2O3 stacks, which can be dynamically dual-resonance frequency-tuned on large range about 1 THz via electrostatic gating on the graphene stack. The performance is analyzed in terms of its directivity, sidelobe suppression, return loss, and bandwidth for different chemical potential. By applying different voltages on graphene stack, the direction of the antenna main beam can be steered with appreciable variation range.
