Abstract
A single-patterned five-band terahertz metamaterial absorber based on simple metal–dielectric–metal sandwich structure is investigated and demonstrated. The numerical simulations reveal the different dependence of the absorption ability on the incident polarization angle, dielectric layer, and structural dimensions of the single pattern. The extracted electric field distribution indicates that the five-band near-perfect absorption performance (average over 98%) mainly originates from the combination of LC, dipole, quadrupole, and high-order resonance. The researches on magnetic field and power loss density distributions further reveal the absorption mechanism. Moreover, additional resonance mode can be excited to form a six-band high-performance absorber only by adjusting some geometric dimensions of the single pattern with multiple resonance modes. The simple method provides us a very good idea to implement a super multi-band absorber. The proposed absorbers here can be applied in massive related fields, such as metamaterial sensors, thermal radiation, and imaging system.
