    Figures & Tables(7)
    PIT structure and simulated transmission spectrum. (a) Schematic of the PIT structure detailing the unit structure geometric parameters: Px = 80 µm, Py = 120 µm, d = 7 µm, and g = 32 µm. The dimensions of the CW are 90 µm in length and 5 µm in width. For the SRRs, both the length and width are 29 µm, and the photosensitive silicon features sizes of 5 µm in both length and width. (b) The simulated transmission spectra of the three metasurface samples, including a PIT array (blue), a CW array (red), and an SRR array (orange).
    Active modulation of the PIT window through conductivity σ regulation. A comparative analysis of the simulated results and theoretical fittings in the PIT structure transmission spectrum at varied conductivity. Conductivity σ values are (a) 0, (b) 500, (c) 1500, (d) 3000, (e) 5000, and (f) 10,000 S/m, respectively. The red curve represents the simulated transmission spectrum, while the blue dotted line illustrates the fitting results obtained using the Lorentz resonator model.
    Electric distribution of the z-component on the PIT structure under varying conductivities. (a) Illustrates the electric z-distribution at a conductivity of 0 S/m, (b) depicts the distribution at a conductivity of 5000 S/m, and (c) presents the distribution when the conductivity reaches 10,000 S/m.
    Variations in the fitting parameters relative to conductivity σ, analyzing the transmission spectrum of the PIT structure. The fitting focuses on the behavior of the key parameters (δ, γ1, γ2, and κ) as they respond to changes in conductivity σ across different values.
    Variations in the group delay with respect to conductivity and parameters d and g. (a) Illustrates the group delay extracted from the transmission spectrum at various conductivity values. (b) Details the group delay as a function of the parameters d and g, specifically when the conductivity is maintained at 0 and 1500 S/m.
    Fitting parameters in relation to parameters d and g. (a) and (b), respectively, present the variations in the fitting parameters of the transmission spectrum corresponding to changes in the parameters d and g.
    Variations in Δf relative to parameters d and g under diverse conductivities. (a) and (b), respectively, illustrate the response curves of parameters d and g at conductivity values of 0 and 1500 S/m. (c) provides a magnified view of the curve within the blue-shaded region shown in (a) and (b).
