Abstract
In recent years, absorbers related to metamaterials have been heavily investigated. In particular, VO2 materials have received focused attention, and a large number of researchers have aimed at multilayer structures. This paper presents a new concept of a three-layer simple structure with VO2 as the base, silicon dioxide as the dielectric layer, and graphene as the top layer. When VO2 is in the insulated state, the absorber is in the closed state, Δf = 1.18 THz (absorption greater than 0.9); when VO2 is in the metallic state, the absorber is open, Δf = 4.4 THz (absorption greater than 0.9), with ultra-broadband absorption. As a result of the absorption mode conversion, a phenomenon occurs with this absorber, with total transmission and total reflection occurring at 2.4 THz (A = 99.45% or 0.29%) and 6.5 THz (A = 90% or 0.24%) for different modes. Due to this absorption property, the absorber is able to achieve full-transmission and full-absorption transitions at specific frequencies. The device has great potential for applications in terahertz absorption, terahertz switching, and terahertz modulation.
