“…60 There are many tuning mechanisms for controlling the active components, such as electric, [60][61][62][63][64] thermal, [65][66][67][68] and optical. [69][70][71][72] Various types of active or tunable materials have been explored in tunable and reconfigurable metamaterials such as transparent conductive oxides, 73,74 ferroelectrics, 75,76 liquid crystal, 77,78 graphene, 61,79,80 and phase change materials [81][82][83][84] in terahertz. In microwave frequencies, pin-diodes, varactors, and other integrated components are utilized to realize the combination of active characters and metamaterials.…”
