Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Dynamic modulation of emissivity spectrum of a gap-movable metasurface of which the gap exhibits an ultra-small mechanical translation was experimentally demonstrated. The gap in a metasurface resonant at mid-infrared region around 3-4 micrometers made of metallic stripes and a metallic continuous mirror film was modulated by only 20-40 nanometers, and the change in the emissivity (absorption) was verified. This result suggests the possibility of a dynamic control of thermal emission from a metasurface with a thickness-mode piezoelectric oscillator operable at a high frequency as high as 100 MHz. If a similar metasurface is fabricated from tungsten and HfO2, intense thermal emitter at a high temperature as high as 1000 deg. C could be modulated at a high rate as high as 10-100 MHz.
