Abstract
In this paper, we propose a frequency tunable metamaterial perfect absorber in the THz region based on graphene. The unit cell consists of a periodically patterned graphene cross-ring resonator and a gold film separated by a dielectric spacer. The simulation results demonstrate that the maximum value of absorption is 99.9% at 4.7 THz. By controlling the graphene conductivity, the frequency tunable characteristics can be achieved in this metamaterial absorber. When varying the diameter of the ring or the length of the cross, we find that resonance absorption frequency will significantly shifts. Moreover, the metamaterial absorber possesses the polarization-insensitive and a wide range of the incident angles up to 70° for both TE and TM polarization. Our absorber can be used in some practical applications due to its excellent absorption and simple structure.
