    Area of Science:

    • Metamaterials
    • Optics
    • Electromagnetism

    Background:

    • Chiral metamaterials are typically used for polarization conversion.
    • Designing and fabricating chiral structures can be complex.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To numerically investigate the transmission properties of a layer-by-layer nonchiral metamaterial.
    • To explore the potential of nonchiral structures for circular polarization transformation.

    Main Methods:

    • Numerical simulations were employed to study the metamaterial's transmission characteristics.
    • Surface current distributions were analyzed to understand the underlying physical mechanisms.

    Main Results:

    • Giant circular polarization conversion was observed for both right and left circularly polarized waves under off-normal incidence.
    • A significant operation bandwidth of approximately 1 GHz was achieved.
    • Copolarization transmissions were suppressed to near zero, ensuring high purity in polarization transformation.

    Conclusions:

    • The observed phenomenon is attributed to a strong magnetic response within the nonchiral metamaterial.
    • This nonchiral metamaterial offers advantages in design and fabrication over chiral counterparts.
    • The material shows promise as an effective circular polarization transformer.
