We amdyze tile effect of film thickness, material loss, and lateral shift between two metallic gratings on the performance of the THz polarizer. Bilayer wire-grid polarizers are fabricated by a simple way of laser induced and non-electrolytic plating with copper. The THz time-domain spectroscopy measurements show that in 0.2 1.6 THz frequency range, the extinction ratio is better than 45 dB, the average extinction ratio reaches 53 dB, and the transmittance exceeds 67%, which shows great advantage over conventional single wire-grid THz polarizer.展开更多

A protected cladding layer of the same material as the grating＇s was deposited on the ridge, whereas the wire-grid is deposited in the grating trenches, which makes it more firm during application. High polarization extinction ratios of above 40 and 20 dB for transmission and reflection, respectively, with a broad wavelength range for the whole optical communication bandwidth （850 -1700 nm） and a wide angular tolerance （〉 ±20 °） are obtained by optimization of the designed structures, and the grating period is 200 nm.展开更多
