Abstract
Obtaining functional devices with tunable features is benefi cial to advance terahertz (THz) science and technology. Here, we propose multifunctional gradient metasur faces that are composed of a periodic array of binary Si microcylinders integrated with VO2 and graphene. The metasurfaces act as transmittive (reflective) beamsplitters for the dielectric (metallic) phase of VO2 with a switchable characteristic. Moreover, by integrating the metasurfaces with graphene and modifying its chemical potential, one can tune the intensity of the split beam as well as obtain nearly perfect resonant absorptions. Consequently, the proposed metasurfaces can find potential applications in THz interferometers, multiplexers, and light absorbers.
