Terahertz (THz) radiation, which is sandwiched between the infrared and microwave in the electromagnetic spectrum, has become more and more attractive due to its special properties. Compared with the quick development of THz sources and detectors, THz functional devices are lagging behind, especially the devices for wave front modulation. Metasurface, a kind of artificial materials, is enable effective manipulation of the amplitude, phase and polarization state of electromagnetic waves with subwavelength spatial resolution. It has been used for ultrathin planar lenses, complex light field generation, spin orbital angular momentum coupling, and metasurface holograms. However, the function of this kind of metasurface based devices are fixed once they are fabricated, the spatial THz modulation which can dynamically modulate the wave front of THz radiation is demand in high resolution THz imaging and THz communication.
