Abstract
The VO2 thin film has the advantage of thermally controlled insulator-metal phase transition. Based on this, we presented a thermally reconfigurable metamaterial with switchable wideband absorption and sensing at THz band in this paper. At low temperature ([Formula: see text][Formula: see text]S/m), the metamaterial can realize nearly perfect absorption at the range of 6.88–9[Formula: see text]THz. When the temperature rises to a certain extent ([Formula: see text][Formula: see text]S/m), an absorption peak which can be used to sensing appears at 4.08[Formula: see text]THz with the permittivity sensitivity of 0.5[Formula: see text]THz/PU. The metamaterial has the advantages of simple structure and switchable wideband absorption/sensing functions with potential application value on terahertz stealth, detection, sensing, and so on.
