Design and Demonstration of Impedance-matched Dual-band Chiral Metasurfaces
Abstract We propose a new family of impedance-matched chiral metasurfaces that offer arbitrary polarization control at two different frequencies. To this end, two main problems are addressed: (1) determination of the required surface impedances for a certain user-defined chiral functionality at two...
