Sumario:Tailoring electromagnetic properties by meta-devices has aroused great interest with respect to manipulating light. However, the uncertainty of angular dispersion introduced by the incident waves prevents their further applications. Here, we propose a general paradigm for achieving dual-transmission windows while simultaneously eliminating the corresponding angular dispersions by a dynamic manner. The strategy of loading varactor diodes into a plasmonic meta-atom is used. In this way, the blue shifts of angular dispersion can be dynamically compensated by the red shifts introduced by the varactor diodes when driven by bias voltage. As a proof-of-principle, an active meta-atom with varactor diodes is presented. The varactor diodes embedded can independently regulate dual-transmission windows. The test results are consistent with the simulation ones. The presented meta-device is used for intelligent radome, angle-multiplexed communications, and incident-angle-insensitive equipment while providing tunable angular dispersion properties.
