TY  - JOUR
AB - Tunable metasurfaces, whose functionality can be dynamically modified, open up the possibil-ity of ultra-compact photonic components with reconfigurable applications. Here we consider agraphene monolayer subject to a spatially periodic gate bias, which, thank to surface plasmons inthe graphene, acts as a tunable and extremely compact metasurface for terahertz radiation. Aftercharacterizing its functionality, we show that it serves as the basic building block of an ultrathincomplete absorber. In this subwavelength-thickness device, transmission and reflection channels areblocked and electromagnetic energy is completely absorbed by the metasurface building blocks. Theproposed structure can be used as a modulator, and its frequency of operation can be changed byscaling its size or adjusting the doping level.
