Abstract

Energy Engineering and Power Technology Electrical and Electronic Engineering
We demonstrate a liquid crystal based THz spatial light modulator (SLM). Indium tin oxide or gold finger type patterns were used for transparent (>70 % at 0.08 to 1.2 THz) conductor and self-cross polarizer. The phase shift and amplitude modulation achieved are greater than 90° and 30 % in broadband in THz frequency. This SLM could become a promising candidate for high speed THz imaging application via compress sensing algorithm.
