摘要
In this paper, we propose to achieve wideband linear-to-circular (LTC) polarization conversion by ultra-thin bi-layered metasurfaces. As an example, an LTC polarization conversion metasurface operating in 11.4-14.3 GHz is designed and fabricated, which is composed of two layers of metallic pattern arrays separated by a 1.5 mm-thick dielectric spacer. When linearly polarized waves impinge on the bi-layered metasurface, LTC polarization conversion transmission is greater than 90% over a wide frequency range from 11.0 GHz to 18.3 GHz. Meanwhile, the axis ratio is lower than 3 dB in 9.8-18.3 GHz. This wide-band and highly efficient LTC polarization conversion transmission is analyzed theoretically. The measured LTC polarization conversion transmissions are well consistent with the simulated results.
