Dual-band giant spin-selective full-dimensional manipulation of graphene-based chiral meta-mirrors for terahertz waves.

The ability to simultaneous achieve circular dichroism (CD) and wavefront manipulation is extremely important for many practical applications, especially for detecting and imaging. However, many of the previously observed weakness chiral features are limited to nanostructures with complex three-dimensional building configurations, single narrow-band response, and no active tunability, which are getting farther and away from the goal of integration and miniaturization. Here, a platform of bi-layer all-graphene meta-mirrors with spin-selective full-dimensional manipulation is proposed to simultaneously achieve giant dual-band CD response and wavefront shaping, based on the principle of the hybridization coupling. By simply controlling the structural variables of the meta-mirror and the characteristic parameters of graphene, that is, the combination of passive and active regulation, the proposed design can selectively manipulate the polarization, amplitude, phase, and working frequency of the incident circularly polarized wave near-independently. As a proof of concept, we used the meta-mirror to design two metasurface arrays with spin-selective properties for dynamic terahertz (THz) wavefront shaping and near-field digital imaging, both of which show a high-performance dynamic tunability. This method could provide additional options for the next-generation intelligent THz communication systems.
