Abstract
In this paper, we have suggested an effective optical switch with the cross fractal shape. It contains the main cross element that connected to four parasitic elements by four organic’s material junctions. This absorber is modified as a tunable element by using the graphene layer which can be considered for compensating the physical distortion. Each organic and parasitic load is placed over a graphene layer. These graphene layers separated with a SiO2 thin film. We have implemented a SiO2 layer as a spacer between the graphene and metal ground layer. The organic materials are popular for their various resistances value. We have applied a bulky dielectric slab with two different conductivity values for high and low resistance (HRS and LRS). This absorber works at the range of 90–100 THz for mid-infrared spectrum and the bandwidth of 4%. In the HRS mode the reflection value is about − 35 up to − 25 dB. When the organic material switched to LRS mode, this value drastically increased to − 5 dB. The designed absorber has both the tunable and switchable attributes. We have simulated this switch by the finite integral technique method with CST microwave studio.
