Refractive Index Tuning of Terahertz Photonic Materials Based on a Stretchable Silicon Effective Medium

Hidemasa Yamane, Yoshiharu Yamada, Yusuke Kondo +3

Dynamically tunable terahertz (THz) photonics requires low-loss dielectric platforms with practical, continuous control of refractive index. Here we present a mechanically reconfig…
