▎ 摘　　要

A graphene-based metamaterial structure, consisting of a graphene strip (GS) and a L-shaped graphenerectangular block (GRB), is proposed to generate the plasmon-induced transparency (PIT) effect. The potential physical properties of the PIT effect are analyzed by using the coupled mode theory (CMT). The PIT has the unique characteristics of controlling light propagation through the static and dynamic regulations, resulting in a prospective switching application. The performance of the optical switch is evaluated through different parameters, including the geometric size, Fermi level and polarization angle. The modulation depth of the amplitude can reach 74.9% with a specific Fermi level, while the maximum polarization extinction ratio can reach 11.34 dB. Furthermore, dual and triple PIT effects are achieved by the designing and optimizing the structure. The maximum multiple switching effect is obtained with a modulation depth of 97.3%, which has a promising prospect in terahertz optical switches.
