Abstract

A dual-band terahertz metamaterial narrowband absorber is investigated based on a single simple windmill-shaped structure. The proposed metamaterial absorber achieves near-perfect absorption at 0.371 THz and 0.464 THz. The full width at half-maximum is 0.76% and 0.31% relative to absorption frequency. The multireflection interference theory is used for analyzing the absorption mechanism at low absorption frequency. The theoretical predictions of the decoupled model have excellent agreement with simulation results. By investigating the absorber's distribution of electric field and surface current density at high absorption frequency, the absorber's near-perfect absorption at the high absorption frequency originating from the magnetic resonance formed between the top metal structure and the bottom metal plane is explained. Besides, the absorber proposed is independent of the polarization angle. It is significant to various applications such as narrowband thermal radiation, photoelectric detection, biological sensing, and other fields.
