| Sumario: | Tunable deflection of obliquely incident, linearly polarized terahertz waves is theoretically studied in a wide frequency range around 20 THz, by combining a thin slab of graphene-dielectric metamaterial (with ten layers of graphene), a dielectric grating, and a uniform polar-dielectric slab operating in the epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) regime. The modulation of the deflection intensity and deflection angle is done by varying the chemical potential of graphene, and is realized with or without connection to the asymmetric transmission. It is shown to depend on the location of the graphene-dielectric metamaterial slab, as well as on the incidence angle. Four scenarios of tunable deflection are found, including the ones realizable in two-component structures without an ENZ slab. |
