Metasurfaces (MSs) are being extensively researched owing to their ability modulate the polarization and wavefront of electromagnetic (EM) waves in a flexible manner, which usually offer significant advantages including ultra-thinness, low losses, easy fabrication. However, conventional MSs typically operate well only with single polarization. Here, we propose novel design strategy for terahertz (THz) reflective-mode MS that relies on unit-cell arrangement combining propagation phase geometric phase. Our designed can achieve multiple manipulations reflection mode, not limited circular (CP) transformation, but also enabling linear (LP) conversion. The consists periodic array bilayered metal patterned resonator structures sandwiched by dielectric substrate. metallic is made outer single-split-ring (SSR) C-shaped slot (CSS), inner double-split-ring (DSR), its complementary structure.

Conventional metasurfaces for terahertz polarization are limited to performing lateral (in the x-y plane) control of output wave. In such cases, state remains unchanged in each plane along propagation path. Herein, we propose a metasurface that operates longitudinally (i.e., z-axis direction propagation), which modifies throughout Our designed can phase delays left-handed and right-handed circularly polarized (LCP RCP) components incident This enables LCP beam RCP converge through distinct paths, creating Bessel beam. The proposed design achieved linearly wave including both with precise difference Δφ at point within certain range z-axis. varies as distance, resulting rotated path, while rotation angle ranges from 0 π.
