Miura origami based reconfigurable polarization converter for multifunctional control of electromagnetic waves
Fig. 1. Polarization converter based on Miura origami can achieve multiple functional control of EM waves. First, in different folding states of origami, the polarization converter operates at different frequencies. In addition, by adjusting the folding angle of the origami structure, linear-to-linear and linear-to-circular polarization converters can be realized under the incidence of linear polarization waves, respectively.
