Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
A terahertz spatial modulator is the critical component for active terahertz imaging using compressive sensing. Here small silicon pieces were put in arrays on flexible polymer substrate to fabricate semiconductor terahertz spatial modulators. By doing this, the inter-diffusion of photo-generated charge carriers is prevented for better resolution, and flexibility is achieved. Since the size of silicon is comparable to the wavelength of the terahertz wave, and the dielectric properties of the gap are very different from silicon, the optical modulation of each element is very different from the large silicon. In this Letter, the terahertz wave interaction and optical modulation of the small silicon are systematically studied by time domain spectroscopy. Notably, a strong resonance-like absorption peak was observed in a transmittance spectrum for the small silicon due to the size and edge effect. The spatial modulation of the terahertz wave was also compared between the silicon array and the large silicon samples.
