This paper reports an independently tunable graphene-based metamaterial absorber (GMA) designed by etching two cascaded resonators with dissimilar sizes in the unit cell. Two perfect absorption peaks were obtained at 6.94 and 10.68 μm with simple single-layer metal-graphene metamaterials; the peaks show absorption values higher than 99%. The mechanism of absorption was analyzed theoretically. The independent tunability of the metamaterial absorber (MA) was realized by varying the Fermi level of graphene under a set of resonators. Furthermore, multi-band and wide-band absorption were observed by the proposed structure upon increasing the number of resonators and resizing them in the unit cell. The obtained results demonstrate the multipurpose performance of this type of absorber and indicate its potential application in diverse applications, such as solar energy harvesting and thermal absorbing.

Effective Application

We simulate, fabricate and measure a microwave absorber by introducing metamaterial design method to magnetic material. The proposed absorber is composed of periodic copper wire array, magnetic material coated on copper wires, a foam substrate and a bottom metal plane. The results show a nearly perfect absorption peak around 8.7GHz (simulated) and 7.6GHz (measured). Even though the electric and magnetic field distribution indicate that the absorption is a typical metamaterial absorption, the power loss is neither Ohmic nor dielectric loss but magnetic loss, which is different from typical metamaterial absorber. The skillful introduction of the magnetic loss improves the absorption performance, including the absorption bandwidth and intensity. The designed absorber shows an effective application of the magnetic material, which is only 1/60000 volume proportion of the total absorber. Dependences of the absorption on frequency and the coating volume of the magnetic material manifest that the coated magnetic material can adjust the absorption peak position and intensity. The absorber can be an attractive candidate of electromagnetic wave absorber.

Perfect Absorption

A subwavelength metamaterial perfect absorber (MPA) in optical communication band was proposed and tested using the finite-difference time-domain method. The absorber is periodic and comprises a top layer of diamond silicon surrounded by L-shaped silicon and a gold layer on the substrate. It can achieve dual-band perfect absorption, and one of the peaks is in the optical communication band. By changing the gap (g) between two adjacent pieces of L-shaped silicon, and the thickness (h) of the silicon layer, the resonance wavelength of absorption peak can be tuned. When the incident electromagnetic wave entered the absorber, the metamaterial absorber could almost completely consume the incident electromagnetic waves, thereby achieving more than 99% perfect absorption. The absorption peak reaches 99.986% at 1310 nm and 99.421% at 1550 nm. Moreover, the MPA exposed to different ambient refraction indexes can be applied as plasma sensors, and can achieve multi-channel absorption with high figure of merit (FOM*) value and refractive index (RI) sensitivity. The FOM* values at 1310 nm and 1550 nm are 6615 and 168, respectively, and both resonance peaks have highly RI sensitivity. The results confirm that the MPA is a dual-band, polarization-independent, wide-angle absorber and insensitive to incident angle. Thence it can be applied in the fields of optical communication, used as a light-wave filter and plasma sensor, and so on.

Abstract Graphene, as a new nano-material, according to the physical properties of electric field localization and selective absorption on light of surface plasmon resonance (SPR), a tunable, multi-band and wide-angle perfect absorber based on crosshair-shaped graphene is devised by using the Finite Difference in Time Domain (FDTD) method. In this paper, the effects of chemical potential, relaxation time, and incident angle of light on the absorptivity of graphene are systematically discussed. The simulation experiment shows that there are two absorption peaks with perfect absorption rate appeared in the study range, and the maximum modulation index can be obtained by changing the relaxation time. Finally, it proves that the absorber is insensitive to wide-angle of light. Thus, it is able to be concluded that the absorber has a great reference value to sensor, wireless communication, biomedical and other fields.

Abstract Developing a highly efficient and multiple-bands metamaterial absorber is a hot issue in recent era. In this paper, A multiple-bands metamaterial absorber has been presented which is based in X, Ku and K-band. Firstly, we have designed two single layer basic unit cell of X-shape and cross-shape, then they are arranged in the multi-layers structure form for the purpose of obtaining multiple- bands and wide band absorption. The proposed absorber is able to work in multiple bands because it has six peaks in the frequency range of 8–24 GHz with having near perfect absorption. Moreover, the sixth peak has a wideband absorption which is 2.93 GHz. Furthermore, the proposed absorber is also tested for polarization insensitivity and also for oblique incidence. Absorption was found polarization insensitive with almost perfect absorption.

Underlying Mechanisms

Metamaterial-based absorbers have been extensively investigated in the terahertz (THz) range with ever increasing performances. In this paper, we propose an all-dielectric THz absorber based on doped silicon. The unit cell consists of a silicon cross resonator with an internal cross-shaped air cavity. Numerical results suggest that the proposed absorber can operate from THz to far-infrared regimes, having an average power absorption of ∼95% between 0.6 and 10 THz. Experimental results using THz time-domain spectroscopy show a good agreement with simulations. The underlying mechanisms for broadband absorption are attributed to the combined effects of multiple cavities modes formed by silicon resonators and bulk absorption in the doped silicon substrate, as confirmed by simulated field patterns and calculated diffraction efficiency. This ultra-wideband absorption is polarization insensitive and can operate across a wide range of the incident angle. The proposed absorber can be readily integrated into silicon-based photonic platforms and used for sensing, imaging, energy harvesting and wireless communications applications in the THz/IR range.
