The research demonstrates the active manipulation of metamaterial-induced transparency (MIT) in a terahertz hybrid metamaterial with a graphene overlayer under photoexcitation. The introduction of graphene modifies the resonant dips and transparency window, and transient control of MIT behaviors is determined by photogenerated carrier dynamics. Furthermore, the addition of graphene to the hybrid metamaterial enhances terahertz response.
We have demonstrated the active manipulation of metamaterial-induced transparency (MIT) in a terahertz hybrid metamaterial with graphene overlayer under photoexcitation. It is found that the introduction of graphene can greatly modify the resonant dips and transparency window through the formed depolarization field around unequal-length double bars to weaken dipole resonances and their destructive interference. Transient control of MIT behaviors is determined by the photogenerated carrier dynamics, which influences the distributions of currents and electric fields in the resonant region to hinder the near-field coupling of two bright modes. Optical modulation depth is sensitive to bar spacing due to an anomalous increased double-bar coupling involving intracell and intercell interaction. Heterointerface formed by the added graphene with substrate could further enhance terahertz response via effective separation of the photoexcited carriers. Theoretical calculation based on the coupled Lorentz oscillator model reveals that the photoinduced terahertz response mainly originates from the coupling and damping in hybrid structures. Our findings could facilitate the development of graphene-based dynamical terahertz modulators and optoelectronic devices.
