In this paper, we combine the design of band-pass frequency selective surfaces (FSSs) with polarization converters to realize a broadband frequency-selective polarization converter (FSPC) with lowbackward scattering, which consists of the top polarization conversion layer backed by a multi-layer bandpass FSS. It is numerically demonstrated that the 1 dB transmission window can be obtained from 8.5 GHz to 11 GHz with a 25.6% fractional bandwidth (FBW), and the bandwidth of reflection below -10 dB is up to 92% from 5.6 GHz to 15.13 GHz. Moreover, the proposed device can achieve two polarization conversion bands (5.66-6.9 GHz and 12.8-15.2GHz) with the polarization conversion ratio over 90%. Besides, by arranging the proposed structure in a checkerboard-like distribution, the backward scattering energy can be reduced in a wide frequency band ranging from 4 to 16 GHz. Both simulation and experimental results are in good agreements, which demonstrates our design strategy. Compared with the conventional polarization conversion designs, the proposed design presents an extra frequency-selective performance and hence can be applied to various practical situations, for instance, working as radomes to transmit the in-band signals with high-efficiency while keeping low-backward scattering for the out-of-band waves.

This paper proposes a flexible broadband linear polarization converter based on metasurface operating at microwave band. In order to achieve bandwidth extension property, long and short metallic arc wires, as well as the metallic disks placed over a ground plane, are combined into the polarizer, which can generate three neighboring resonances. Due to the combination of the first two resonances and optimized size and thickness of the unit cell, the polarization converter can have a weak incident angle dependence. Both simulated and measured results confirm that the average polarization conversion ratio is over 85% from 11.3 to 20.2 GHz within a broad incident angle from 0{deg} to 45{deg}. Moreover, the proposed polarization converter based on flexible substrates can be applied for conformal design. The simulation and experiment results demonstrate that our designed polarizer still keeps high polarization conversion efficiency even when it adheres on convex cylindrical surfaces. The periodic metallic structure of the designed polarizer has great potential application values in the microwave, terahertz and optic regimes.
In this paper, a broadband tunable polarization converter based on graphene metasurfaces is proposed. This polarization converter works in the terahertz (THz) frequency region, using the advantage of graphene characteristics to have a tunable frequen cy response. The designed graphene-shaped periodic structure on top of the substrate is utilized to convert the incident wave polarization to the desired target in a flexible operational band in the THz frequencies. The polarization conversion ratio is more than 0.85 in a wide range of frequencies in the THz band from 4.86 to 8.42 THz (the fractional bandwidth is 54%). The proposed polarization converter is insensitive to the angle of the incident wave up to 40{deg}. Using graphene provides a tunable frequency response without changing the geometry of the designed structure.
We experimentally demonstrate a mode-selective quantum frequency converter over a compound spatio-temporal Hilbert space. We show that our method can achieve high-extinction for high-dimensional quantum state tomography by selectively upconverting th e signal modes with a modulated and delayed pump. By preparing the pump in optimized modes through adaptive feedback control, selective frequency conversion is demonstrated with up to 30 dB extinction. The simultaneous operations over high-dimensional degrees of freedom in both spatial and temporal domains can serve as a viable resource for photon-efficient quantum communications and computation.
A polarization-independent reconfigurable frequency selective rasorber (FSR)/absorber with low insertion loss based on diodes is proposed in this paper. The presented structure consists of a lossy layer based on square loops and a bandpass frequency- selective surface. These two layers are separated by an air layer. Each layer has an embedded bias network that provides the bias voltage to the diodes through metallic via. This configuration can avoid undesirable effects associated with the additional biasing wire. When the diodes are in off-state, the structure is in FSR mode and exhibits a transmission window at 4.28GHz with only 0.69dB insertion loss (IL) within the absorption bands. While diodes are in on-state and the structure switches to absorber mode, it achieves perfect absorption with absorptivity of over 90% ranging from 2.8 to 5.2 GHz. An equivalent circuit model (ECM) is developed to analyse the physical mechanism of the structure. A prototype of the proposed architecture is fabricated and measured, where reasonable agreements between simulations and measurements are observed, verifying the effectiveness of this design.
A water-based switchable frequency selective rasorber with polarization selectivity using the Great Wall structures is presented in this paper. The proposed structure comprises a container containing horizontal and vertical channels enabling dividabl e injection of water, and a cross-gap FSS. The novelty of the design lies in its switchability among four different operating states by injecting water or not into the water channels. When the container is empty, the structure acts as a polarization-intensive FSS with a -0.42 dB insertion loss passband at 3.75 GHz. When the horizontal channel is filled with water and there is no water in the vertical channel, this structure can be used as an FSR with single polarization selectivity. The FSR with -10 dB absorption band from 6.8 GHz to 18.8 GHz only allows certain polarized electromagnetic (EM) waves to pass at 3.1 GHz with an insertion loss of -0.78 dB, while another polarized EM wave cannot pass. When the container is full of water, the structure operates as an absorber with a reflection band below the absorption band, where neither of polarization EM waves can transmit. Besides, a reconfigurable water-based FSR automatic control system is built to achieve state switching and temperature constancy of the water within the container. Ultimately, a prototype of the presented design is fabricated, simulated and measured to verify the feasibility. This work has potential application in radome design to realize the out-of-band RCS reduction.
