Abstract :
In this paper, we present the concept and design of beam scanning terahertz antenna based on graphene arrays. The main lobe direction is verified to be scannable with flexibility introduced by graphene. The working principle of the beam scanning is further studied based on secondary reflection theory. This work can be further extended to flexible metasurface/coding metamaterial based antennas with graphene.
