In this study, we introduce ultra-thin aluminum film as a new transparent electrode in the liquid crystal device for THz wave. The transmittance of the THz wave increases by controlling the surface structure of Al films. Furthermore, we achieve an electrically phase-tunable LC device using ultra-thin aluminum electrodes.
