The device consists of metal gate, anU-refleetlon coatings, liquid crystal and mirror. By changing the refractive index of liquid crystal in the interface between the metal gate and the mirror, the phase difference between two beams with orthogonal polarization is varied and a continuous phase sliift is achieved. The phase shift of the device is calculated by using the finite difference time domain （FDTD） method, and the transmittance and reflectance are calculated by using the rigorous coupled wave analysis （RCWA） method. The results reveal that the structure can realize continuously tunable phase shift for THz wave at 1 THz.展开更多
