چکیده

An innovative tunable and polarization-insensitive 1.6-8 GHz frequency selective surface (FSS) absorber was investigated in this study. The proposed FSS, which is in 4-axial symmetrical form, includes a novel array of PIN diodes with biasing lines including inductors. A gradually reduced equivalent resistor of PIN diodes can be achieved with increasing DC voltage, which characterizes tunable, multi-resonance absorption peaks. Via this simplified design, small value resistor and equivalent capacitance of the gap between patterns can improve the absorber's performance in low frequencies; an active tunable absorber can be realized in a broad frequency range by employing adjustable devices. Changing the working state of the PIN diode allows the user to obtain strong absorption within the desired frequency. We analyzed the performance of the proposed absorber and found that it indeed shows very favorable absorption performance in low frequency (-10 dB in 1.6-4.3 GHz) and wideband (-8 dB in 4.3-5.4 GHz and -10 dB in 5.4-8.0 GHz) conditions. Calculation and simulation results also illustrated that the absorber is entirely polarization-insensitive.

A Fractal-based Compact Broadband Polarization Insensitive Metamaterial Absorber Using Lumped Resistors

In this article, a broadband polarization insensitive metamaterial absorber has been proposed for C-band (4–8 GHz) applications using lumped resistors. The unit cell of the proposed structure is based on an inverted Minkowski fractal loop, where four lumped resistors are mounted to obtain a broad absorption band at the expense of 5 mm thick dielectric substrate, which is only 0.033k0 with respe...

Octave-Spanning Broadband Absorption of Terahertz Light Using Metasurface Fractal-Cross Absorbers

Synthetic fractals inherently carry spatially encoded frequency information that renders them as an ideal candidate for broadband optical structures. Nowhere is this more true than in the terahertz (THz) band where there is a lack of naturally occurring materials with valuable optical properties. One example are perfect absorbers that are a direct step toward the development of highly sought af...
