Inversion Method Characterization of Graphene-Based Coordination Absorbers Incorporating Periodically Patterned Metal Ring Metasurfaces

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a tunable coordinated multi-band absorber that combines graphene with metal–dielectric–metal structures for the realization of multiple toward perfect absorption. The parametric inversion method is used to extract the equivalent impedance and explain the phenomena of multiple-peak absorption. With the change of the Fermi level, equivalent impedances were extracted, and the peculiarities of the individual multiple absorption peaks to change were determined. By changing the structure parameters of gold rings, we obtain either multiple narrow-band absorption peaks or a broadband absorption peak, with the bandwidth of 0.8 μm where the absorptance is near 100%. Therefore, our results provide new insights into the development of tunable multi-band absorbers and broadband absorbers that can be applied to terahertz imaging in high-performance coordinate sensors and other promising optoelectronic devices.

Coordination multi-band absorbers with patterned irrelevant graphene patches based on multi-layer film structures

“…As we only consider highly doped graphene, we should take into account that E f ≫ k B T and E f ≫ ℏω. Therefore, the Kubo equation can be simplified to a Drude-like equation [51,52]:…”

Independently tunable all-dielectric synthetic multi-spectral metamaterials based on Mie resonance

“…Metamaterials (MMs) are artificially constructed materials composed of subwavelength periodic meta-atoms which exhibit unusual electromagnetic properties impossible to achieve with natural materials, such as negative refractive index, 1,2 electromagnetic induced transparency 3,4 and invisibility. 5,6 Owing to their unique properties and the rapid blossoming of fabrication techniques, MMs operating from RF to optics have been achieved by adjusting the structural units appropriately and employed to realize diverse applications, including filters, 7,8 absorbers, 9,10 polarization converters 11 and modulators. 12,13 However, most of the reported MMs can only interact with electromagnetic waves in one band, imposing undesirable restrictions on their application in certain areas such as multi-spectral imaging, which requires collecting discrete information distributed over multiple spectral ranges so as to acquire more features from the object of interest.…”

Accurate Time-Domain Modeling of Arbitrarily Shaped Graphene Layers Utilizing Unstructured Triangular Grids

“…As a consequence, an extremely fine mesh is required for the staircase approximation of such configurations [21][22][23], which degrades the simulation's performance. Alternatively, frequency-domain numerical solvers can be employed [24][25][26][27], sacrificing the advantages of time-domain solutions.…”
