Fig. 6. (a1)–(c1) Schematics of a microrod, metallic gratings, and a unit cell of the directional device. The intersection angle between the long axis of the microrod and the x axis is 45°, while the long axis of gratings is along the x axis. (a2)–(a4) The co-polarized/cross-polarized/total transmission and reflection of the microrod under the illumination of linearly polarized THz waves. (b2)–(b4) The co-polarized/cross-polarized/total transmission and reflection of the metallic gratings under the illumination of linearly polarized THz waves. (c2)–(c4) The co-polarized/cross-polarized/total transmission and reflection of the unit cell of the directional device under the illumination of linearly polarized THz waves. Tij(Rij) is the transmission (reflection) of the i-polarized THz waves under the illumination of j-polarized THz waves (i,j=x,y). Ti(Ri,i=x,y) is the total transmission (total reflection) under the illumination of i-polarized THz waves.
