The emergence of monolayer material has opened new avenue for manipulating light beyond the capability of traditional optics. However, controlling the terahertz (THz) wave with magnetized monolayer graphene based on multi-beam interference method is interesting but yet reported. In this article, we report an optically induced lattice with tunability in THz by interfering four plane waves in the magnetized monolayer graphene. We show that the optical properties of the induced optical lattice can be efficiently tuned by varying the optical parameter of the interference beams (i.e., the photon detuning and the Rabi frequency), resulting in both amplitude- and phase-type lattice. Based on Fraunhofer diffraction theory, it is found that the far-field diffraction efficiency is adjustable via varying the probe detuning. Moreover, it is also found that the probe field is diffracted into the high-order direction when the photon detuning is within the triangle-like anti-centrosymmetric region. Such a tunable THz lattice may provide a versatile tool for all-optical switching at the few photons level and paves the way for next generation high-speed wireless communication.
