Abstract
An infrared perfect absorber structure is designed based on GaAs/Au/SiO2 metamaterial with numerical simulation, in which gold split ring resonators (SRR) embedded in the GaAs layer. The absorption exceeds 99% at 1360 nm under the plane wave excitation with its polarization perpendicular to the opening direction of the SRR. When the polarization of the plane wave is parallel to the opening direction, the absorption exceeds 97% and 56% at 970 and 2070 nm, respectively, which realize dual-band absorption. The absorption peaks are effectively modulated by controlling surface current density distribution and resonant electromagnetic response. In addition, the resonant wavelengths are further manipulated by optimizing the resonant ring structural parameters, which achieve ultrawide-band absorption ranging from near-infrared to mid-infrared region. The absorber remains absorption peaks above 96% under wide-angle plane wave incidence, and the resonant peak positions are independent of the incident angle. This work exhibits the promise of GaAs-based metamaterial in practical applications in energy harvesting and night vision imaging.
