Summary: This paper investigates the terahertz characteristics of a p-Si hybrid metasurface device under avalanche breakdown effect, observing the disappearance of plasmon-induced transparency effect and dipole resonance suppression. The maximal modulation depth can reach up to 99.9% due to the avalanche effect, showing great potential for terahertz devices.

Summary: The study demonstrates the active modulation of EIT analog by integrating graphene into a microwave metamaterial for the first time, showing that the EIT peak can be dynamically controlled under a relatively low bias voltage applied on graphene. The continuous tuning of the EIT resonance strength is achieved by variably dampening the dark resonator using graphene.

Summary: In this paper, an easily implemented monolayer graphene structure is proposed for achieving triple plasmon-induced transparency and absorption effects. By altering the Fermi energy and carrier mobility of graphene, the absorption intensity can be dynamically controlled over a broadband frequency range. The triple plasmon-induced absorption spectrum shows 20 times more absorption bands compared to monolayer graphene, with a sensitivity of 0.4 THz RIU-1 for terahertz plasmonic sensing applications.

Summary: This study presents a Germanium (Ge) metastructure with switching features of broadband plasmon-induced transparency (PIT) and electromagnetically induced absorption (EIA). By utilizing the near-field coupling between the localized plasmon resonance and the Mie resonance, the metastructure achieves a wide transparent window and a wide absorption window through phase modulation. The introduction of a grid-like structure, additional dark mode loss, and a frequency selective surface further enhance the absorption bandwidth of the metastructure.

Summary: This study demonstrates bidirectional electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) through coupling of magnetic dipole modes on a nanoscale a-Si cuboid-bar metasurface. By breaking the symmetry of the cuboid-bar structure, destructive interference between bright and dark magnetic dipole modes is induced, resulting in the bidirectional EIT phenomenon. The position and amplitude of simulated EIT peak can be adjusted by the vertical and horizontal spacing, providing potential applications in magnetic sensing and nonlinearity.
