A kirigami-based reconfigurable metasurface for selective electromagnetic transmission modulation

S. He, C. Wang, et al.

This research by Shuchang He and colleagues unveils a groundbreaking kirigami-based reconfigurable electromagnetic metasurface that can adeptly modulate both linearly and circularly polarized waves. The innovative design, which smartly transitions from 2D to 3D states through simple stretching, displays impressive transmission modulation with minimal frequency shifts, offering exciting implications for future technologies.

Abstract
This paper introduces a novel kirigami-based reconfigurable electromagnetic metasurface that selectively modulates linearly and circularly polarized waves. The metasurface, composed of a deformable polyimide substrate and copper split-ring resonators, transitions from a 2D planar state to a 3D configuration via simple stretching. Experimental and numerical results demonstrate effective transmission modulation with minimal resonant frequency shift. The mechanism is explained through equivalent circuit analysis, highlighting the influence of geometrical parameters.
