Terahertz modulation characteristics of three nanosols under external field control based on microfluidic chip.

ABSTRACT: Recently, with the widespread application of metamaterials in the terahertz (THz) modulation field, solid-state THz modulators have made breakthrough progress; however, there are still challenges in preparing flexible THz modulators with wide modulation bandwidths. In this study, a THz microfluidic chip was fabricated using cycloolefin copolymers with high transmission (90%) of THz waves. The THz modulation characteristics of TiO₂, Ag, and Fe₃O₄ nanosols under the control of an optical field, electric field, and magnetic field, respectively, were investigated. Under the action of photogenerated carrier migration, colloidal electrophoresis, and magneto-optical effect, all three nanosols exhibit broadband modulation performance in the frequency range of 0.3-2
