Abstract
In this paper, a polarization-dependent wide-angle three-dimensional metamaterial absorber with a near-unity absorbance was presented. The metamaterial absorber structure is composed of coplanar electric and magnetic resonators. By carefully adjusting the structural dimensions, less-than-unity ε and/or μ can be realized. To match the impedance of free space, the structural dimensions were adjusted so that ε= μ, which guarantees minimum reflection. Since the resonance-based structure is made of metallic resonators and lossy substrates, the imaginary part of refractive index is large, which guarantees strong absorption of transmitted waves. Full-wave simulations confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed three-dimensional metamaterial absorber.
