▎ 摘　　要

We design and numerically investigate a broadband tunable terahertz polarization converter based on graphene metamaterial. The converter presents a broad conversion band with high polarization conversion ratio (>0.95) in terahertz frequency over a bandwidth which is 25.8% of the central frequency. The converter can be dynamically tuned by varying the Fermi Energy of the graphene without changing the geometric structure. The converter shows high conversion ratio for a wide range of incident angles from 0 to 40 degrees. By the scaling of the proposed structure, the broadband properties of the converter can be easily spread to other frequency. The proposed metamaterial offers an approach in the manipulation of the light polarization and has potential applications in imaging, sensing and communications. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V.
