AbstractAs the last gap in electromagnetic spectrum, the THz region(0.1THz and 10THz) has huge potential to be applied to future high-speed, ultra-broadband wireless communications. THz wave modulator is the key element in future THz wireless communication systems. It has received extensive investigations among scholars domestic and abroad. In this paper, THz technology and photonic crystal (PC) are combined to design THz modulators. The study on the optical-control tunable photonic crystal THz modulator has great significance to promote the development of THz technology.The modulating mechanisms of THz modulator based on the tunable PC are firstly analyzed, and then the THz modulator based on optical-control compound triangular lattice PC is presented. The compound triangular lattice PC has an advantage of a larger band gap over simple lattice and compound square lattice of common PCs. On basis of compound triangular lattice PC, two kinds of tunable PC THz modulators based on disappearing or shifting theory of defect mode are designed by introducing optical-controlled materials of polyaniline and GaAs. The condition of the appearance of one and two defect modes is discussed when different nonlinear materials filled in single point defect. Then the impact of imaginary index of GaAs on the defect mode and modulation performance is analyzed. With the simulation software of FULLWAVE, the performance of the proposed two devices is finally discussed, including the transmission spectrum, extinction ratio, insertion loss, modulation rate, steady-state energy distribution.Through the simulation, the width of maximum BG of the compound triangular lattice PC is 0.16915, and the value is superior to simple lattice PC and compound square lattice PC. The THz modulator based on optical-control material of polyaniline has the modulation rate of 10GHz, extinction ratio of 21.7dB and the insertion loss of 0.31dB. The dual-wavelength THz modulator based on optical-control material o
