  • Applied an external continuous wave (CW) laser for modulation.

    • Main Results:

    • Achieved a high modulation factor of 99.6% at 6.3 W/cm² laser intensity.
    • Observed significant reduction in THz transmission and reflection.
    • Attributed the reduction to absorption at the MEH-PPV/Si interface.

    Conclusions:

    • An optically controlled polymer/inorganic broadband THz modulator is feasible.
    • The MEH-PPV/silicon interface shows promise for THz modulation applications.
    • Demonstrated efficient modulation of THz waves via optical control.
