A tunable terahertz filter based on graphene and black phosphorene with machine learning-aided analysis
摘要
This paper proposes a tunable terahertz filter based on graphene and black phosphorene (BP), with machine learning-aided analysis. The design consists of five square elements fabricated from graphene, BP, or a hybrid of both, integrated with a metallic waveguide on an Arlon substrate. The study explores three structural setups. In the first, the squares are made entirely of graphene; in the second, they are composed of black phosphorus (BP); and in the third, a graphene layer is placed on top of a BP layer. Modeling and simulation of the structure were performed using the Wave Concept Iterative Process method alongside CST Studio Suite. By leveraging the complementary properties of graphene and BP, the hybrid configuration demonstrates enhanced performance compared to filters based on either material alone. Specifically, the resonant frequency shifts toward higher values, accompanied by a broader tuning range than in the other configurations. In the hybrid case, the resonance frequency
