Abstract
Controlling and modulating terahertz signals is of fundamental importance to allow systems level applications. We demonstrate an innovative approach for controlling the propagation properties of terahertz (THz) radiation, through use of both the excitation optical wavelength (colour) and intensity. We accomplish this using two-dimensional (2D) layered hybrid trihalide perovskites that are deposited onto silicon substrates. The absorption properties of these materials in the visible range can be tuned by changing the number of inorganic atomic layers in between the organic cation layers. Optical absorption in 2D perovskites occurs over a broad spectral range above the bandgap, resulting in free carrier generation, as well as over a narrow spectral range near the bandedge due to exciton formation. We find that only the latter contribution gives rise to photo-induced THz absorption. By patterning multiple 2D perovskites with different optical absorption properties onto a single device, we demonstrate both colour selective modulation and focusing of THz radiation. These findings open new directions for creating active THz devices.
