Principles Of Optics Electromagnetic Theory Of Propagation Interference And Diffraction Of Light

The advent of negative index materials has spawned extensive research into metamaterials over the past decade. Metamaterials are attractive not only for their exotic electromagnetic properties, but also their promise for applications. A particular branch–the metamaterial perfect absorber (MPA)–has garnered interest due to the fact that it can achieve unity absorptivity of electromagnetic waves. Since its first experimental demonstration in 2008, the MPA has progressed significantly with designs shown across the electromagnetic spectrum, from microwave to optical. In this Progress Report we give an overview of the field and discuss a selection of examples and related applications. The ability of the MPA to exhibit extreme performance flexibility will be discussed and the theory underlying their operation and limitations will be established. Insight is given into what we can expect from this rapidly expanding field and future challenges will be addressed.

Metamaterial Electromagnetic Wave Absorbers

Metasurfaces: From microwaves to visible

In this paper, a double V-shaped metasurface that can efficiently convert linear polarizations of electromagnetic (EM) waves in wideband is proposed. Based on the electric and magnetic resonant features of a single V-shaped particle, four EM resonances are generated in a V-shaped pair, leading to significant bandwidth expansion of cross-polarized reflections. The simulation results show that the proposed metasurface is able to convert linearly polarized waves into cross-polarized waves in ultrawideband from 12.4 to 27.96 GHz, with an average polarization conversion ratio (PCR) of 90%. The experimental results are in good agreement with the numerical simulations. Compared to published designs, the proposed polarization converter has a simple geometry but an ultrawideband and hence can be used in many applications, such as reflector antennas, imaging systems, remote sensors, and radiometers. The method can also be extended to the terahertz band.

Ultrawideband and High-Efficiency Linear Polarization Converter Based on Double V-Shaped Metasurface

In recent years we have learned to fabricate structures smaller than electromagnetic wavelengths, and to assemble them into metamaterials with exotic optical properties for previously unimaginable applications. One such property is perfect absorption of incident light, with no reflection or transmission, across many wavelengths. The authors review the physics, design principles, and classification of thin perfect absorbers, and outline avenues for progress.

Thin perfect absorbers for electromagnetic waves: Theory, design, and realizations

In this paper, we present a polarization-insensitive metamaterial (MM) absorber which is composed of the dielectric substrate sandwiched with split-ring-cross resonator (SRCR) and continuous metal film. The MM absorber is not limited by the quarter-wavelength thickness and can achieve near-unity absorbance by properly assembling the sandwiched structure. Microwave experiments demonstrate the maximum absorptivity to be about 99% around 10.91 GHz for incident wave with different polarizations. The surface currents distributions of the resonance structure are discussed to look into the resonance mechanism. Importantly, our absorber is only 0.4 mm thick, and numerical simulations confirm that the MM absorber could achieve very high absorptivity at wide angles of incidence for both transverse electric (TE) wave and transverse magnetic (TM) wave. The sandwiched structure is also suitable for designing of a THz and even higher frequency MM absorber, and simulations demonstrate the absorption of 99% at 1.105 THz.

We design and experimentally demonstrate an ultrathin, ultrabroadband, and highly efficient reflective linear polarization convertor or half-wave retarder operating at terahertz frequencies. The metamaterial-inspired convertor is composed of metallic disks and split-ring resonators placed over a ground plane. The structure exhibits three neighboring resonances, by which the linear polarization of incident waves can be converted to its orthogonal counterpart upon reflection. For an optimal design, a measured polarization conversion ratio for normal incidence is greater than 80% in the range of 0.65–1.45 THz, equivalent to 76% relative bandwidth. The mechanism for polarization conversion is explained via decomposed electric field components that couple with different resonance modes of the structure. The proposed metamaterial design for enhancing efficiency of polarization conversion has potential applications in the area of terahertz spectroscopy, imaging, and communications.

Ultrabroadband reflective polarization convertor for terahertz waves

A broadband metamaterial absorber (MA) based on lumped elements is presented, which is composed of the dielectric substrate sandwiched with metal split-coin resonators (SCR) welded with lumped elements and continuous metal film. We simulated, fabricated, and measured the lumped elements MA. Compared with the single SCR structure MA, the composite MA loaded with lumped elements has a wider absorptivity and works in a lower frequency. The experiment results show that the bandwidth of absorption of 90% is about 1.5 GHz and the full width at half maximum (FWHM) can be up to 50%, the absorptivity is also nearly unchanged for different polarizations. The further simulations of the absorptivity of composite MA with different lumped resistances and capacitances indicate that there exist optimal values for lumped resistances and capacitances, where the absorptivity is the highest and the bandwidth is the widest.
