The design and simulation of a polarization-independent active metamaterial terahertz modulator is presented in this work. The device incorporates an array of gold triple SRRs on an n-doped gallium arsenide layer to create an active metamaterial terahertz modulator with a high modulation depth, a high modulation speed and an especial polarization-independent performance for use in terahertz communication, imaging and sense.We established the theoretical model and simulatedthe key performances of the device with Ansoft HFSS.The results showed that the device exhibits a polarization-insensitivebehavior with a maximum amplitude modulation depth of 71% and a modulation rate of3.2Mbps at the resonance frequency of0.86 THz.
944 mJ Nd:YAG planar waveguide laser amplifier with the optical to optical efficiency of 52%
