Abstract
We propose to realize ultra-wideband polarization conversion metasurfaces in microwave regime through multiple plasmon resonances. An ultra-wideband polarization conversion metasurface is designed using a double-head arrow structure and is further demonstrated both numerically and experimentally. Four plasmon resonances are generated by electric and magnetic resonances, which lead to bandwidth expansion of cross-polarization reflection. The simulated results show that the maximum conversion efficiency is nearly 100% at the four plasmon resonance frequencies and a 1:4 3 dB bandwidth can be achieved for both normally incident x- and y-polarized waves. Experimental results agree well with simulation ones.Keywords
