A novel chiral metasurface (CMS) based on T-shaped resonators is proposed and investigated numerically. The CMS is composed of a periodic array of bi-layered conjugated fourfold T-shaped structure. The retrieved effective electromagnetic (EM) parameters indicate that the multi-band negative refractive index associated with strong optical activity and circular dichroism (CD) effect is realized in terahertz (THz) region. The physical mechanism is illustrated by analyzing the current density distributions. Due to its exotic chiral optical properties, the proposed CMS is useful for the development of THz devices.

An asymmetrical chiral metamaterial at microwave frequency is constructed by using four double-layered L-shaped strips which are rotated by 900 with respect to their adjacent metal strip. These different size strips allows another degree of freedom in the equalizing the orthogonal components of the electric fields at the output interface with 90o phase difference when the x-polarized wave excites the structure. The proposed structure exhibits the properties of chiral medium such as optical activity and circular dichroism. The L shaped chiral objects can be etched on double side substrate. The effect of structure on different electromagnetic parameter like chirality, optical activity and reflection characteristics are analyzed. Due to the strong chirality the structure posses negative refractive index for either left circularly or right circularly polarized wave. In this paper, a numerical study in the frequency domain of the electromagnetic-wave propagation through these types of structures is achieved by using the commercial software Computer Simulation Technology (CST) microwave studio.

<p>Chiral metamaterial is a new breakthrough in the fabrication of a metamaterial because of the capability of providing different refractive index values for each circular polarization angle. This provides opportunities to obtain negative refractive index values, without the necessity to have simultaneously negative values for both permittivity and permeability. This study investigated the optical rectification, which is the phenomenon of second order non-linear optics in the chiral metamaterial. This relates to the testing of the new designs of square structure chiral metamaterial. Optical rectification is often used to 'rectify' femtoseconds laser from the realm of visible light into the terahertz domain. Nonlinear response of metamaterial was observed by terahertz emission spectroscopy. The results showed that the obtained terahertz signal is proportional to the square of the laser power used. This suggests that in the<br />incoherent optical rectification, there is a mixture of optical rectification with the second harmonic wave generation. Development of square-structured chiral metamaterials is expected to be an alternative source of material due to the lack of non-linear material that can be used in the terahertz domain.</p>

In this paper, a multi-band chiral metamaterials (CMMs) based on complementary cross-wire structure is proposed and studied numerically. The finite element method (FEM) method was used to simulate the EM properties of the designed structure. Numerical results indicate that the giant optical activity and multiband negative refractive index can be realized in terahertz region. The proposed CMMs may have some potential applications in novel terahertz device.Particle size of bayerite (d50) was about 24 μm. Al2O3was obtained after calcination at 1050 °C for 1.5 h.
