Abstract

A cylindrical-water-resonator-based absorber with ultra-broad operating band at microwave band is demonstrated theoretically and experimentally for the first time. By utilizing dielectric resonator (DR) mode and spoof surface plasmon polariton (SPP) mode of the cylindrical water resonators, the proposed absorber owns an absorptivity higher than 90% over almost the whole ultra-broad operating band from 5.58 GHz to 24.21 GHz, with a relative bandwidth as high as 125%. The angular tolerance and thermal stability of the proposed absorber are simulated and the results indicate the good performance of the absorber under wide incident angles and weakly dependent on water temperature. Low cost, ultra-broad operating band, good wide-angle characteristic and thermal stability make the absorber promising in the application of antenna measurement, steady technology and energy harvesting.
