| contents | This work introduces a semi-analytical frequency-domain framework for the analysis of two-dimensional, time-modulated (2+1)-D metasurfaces controlled by PIN diodes. The formulation focuses on the unit-cell level, modeled as a waveguide discontinuity problem, where the space-time periodicity of the structure enables the representation of scattered fields via Floquet expansions. After appropriate mathematical treatment, these expansions lead to an equivalent circuit description of the metasurface, providing physical insight into its spatiotemporal scattering behavior and facilitating the design of reconfigurable electromagnetic devices. The model is employed to explore key phenomena present in space-time systems, such as frequency mixing and spatiotemporal scattering. In addition, dynamic tuning is explored in resonant metasurfaces, where time becomes an additional degree of freedom for the design. The dynamic control of resonances opens a new way to explore multi-band and wideband behaviors from very thin metasurfaces under temporal coupling. |
