Terahertz time-domain polarimetry of carbon nanomaterials

Abstract

Abstract Terahertz time-domain spectroscopic polarimetry (THz-TDSP) method was used to study of polarization properties of a few-layer graphene (FLG) and a randomly oriented single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) thin film on silicon (Si) substrates in terahertz (THz) frequency range under an external optical pumping (OP) and an external static magnetic field (MF). Frequency dependencies of azimuth and ellipticity angles of a polarization ellipse of the samples were obtained experimentally. The results confirm the fact that, based on carbon nanomaterials, it is possible to devise tunable THz polarization modulators for use in the latest security and telecommunication systems
