Abstract
In the article, polarization and incident-angle independent metasurface absorber for X-band application has been proposed. Proposed absorber unit cell composed of a circular sector attached to a cross-shaped structure. The proposed absorber is symmetrical along the horizontal and vertical axis, which supports polarization angle insensitivity. Metasurface absorber shows the very good impedance matching with free space at 10.48 GHz along with 97% absorptivity. The full width at half maximum (FWHM) bandwidth is 480 MHz (10.24–10.72 GHz). In transverse electric and magnetic (TE and TM), modes the absorptivity of the proposed absorber is maintained above 90% up to 60° incidence angle. The absorber has an ultrathin thickness of 0.028λo, where λo is the wavelength of absorption peak. The absorption phenomenon is explained by normalized impedance, E-field distribution and surface current density. To analyze the metasurface properties effective permittivity, permeability and dispersion diagram has been demonstrated. The metasurface absorber has been fabricated and it shows the good accord between simulated and measured results.
