Abstract In this paper, a Janus metastructure (JMS) is proposed that can act both as a logic gate and detect multiple physical quantities. By adjusting the incident angle of electromagnetic waves, arranging the dielectrics asymmetrically, and using the anisotropy of the plasma, the Janus function can be obtained, which gives the metastructure a multiscale property. Sharp transmission peak (TP) is generated by located defect mode resonance. The AND logic gate on the positive and negative scales can be realized by judging the TP value. By locking the point frequency of the TP, the refractive index, magnetic field strength, incident angle, and plasma density can be detected simultaneously on the two scales in the GHz range, which is rarely studied. Good sensing performances are also owned, and the corresponding optimal sensitivities are 0.095 (2πc/d)/RIU, 9.42 × 10 −3 (2πc/d)/T, 1.48 × 10 −3 (2πc/d)/°, and 0.035 (2πc/d) m 3 /10 19 , respectively. Compared with the traditional sensors, the proposed JMS equipped with two scales not only can realize the logic gate but also measure multiple physical quantities, which has a certain application potential.
