Outline of Final Research Achievements |
I aimed this project at developing novel optical devices with tunable microstructures to perform active manipulation of terahertz light. Researchers in this field are interested in the optical function of their tunable microstructures. On the other hand, in this project, I researched not only the function of the microstructures but also the way to achieve large-sized devices and simple actuation methods for practical devices. Specifically, for large-sized devices, I investigated optical responses of support frames of the microstructures using both experimental methods and simulation methods. Moreover, as a simple actuation method, I proposed an acoustic actuation method, which is a unique method, and achieved feasible data for practical usage.
