A theoretical method is presented that facilitates the analysis and design of graphene-based tunable terahertz polarization rotators. Most previous designs are based on a three-dimensional (3-D) full-wave electromagnetic simulation; thus, it is time-consuming to get well-tuned structural parameters. Using the proposed method, the transmission response of the polarization rotator is directly calculated for a given set of structural parameters.
