We propose a new type of reflective polarizer based on polarization-dependent coupling to surface-plasmon polaritons (SPPs) from free space. This inexpensive polarizer is relatively narrowband but features an extinction ratio of up to 1000…
Terahertz polarizers are essential for advanced spectroscopic systems but face challenges like low transmission, short bandwidths and low extinction ratios. This study demonstrates the development of ultrabroadband THz polarizers using…
A novel method for increasing the extinction ratio of plasmonic waveguide polarizer has been investigated in this work. Aluminum was coated in a 20 microns multi-strips pattern on the top of a SU-8 waveguide to excite the surface plasmons.…
