Sumario:A traditional optical lens usually has a fixed focus, and its focus controlling relies on a bulky lens component, which makes integration difficult. In this study, we propose a kind of terahertz spatial varifocal metamirror with a consistent metal–graphene unit structure whose focus can be flexibly adjusted. The focus deflection angle can be theoretically defined by superimposing certain encoded sequence on it according to Fourier convolution theorem. The configurable metamirror allows for the deflection of the focus position in space. The proposed configuration approach presents a design concept and offers potential advancements in the field of developing novel terahertz devices.
