研究目的
Investigating the design and performance of a graphene-based tunable THz metamaterial absorber for applications in sensing, imaging, and detecting.
研究成果
The study successfully presents a graphene-based tunable broadband THz metamaterial absorber. By introducing multi-resonance gold patches into the unit cell, the absorption bandwidth is expanded. The absorber's performance can be conveniently tuned by changing the chemical potential of graphene via a DC voltage, offering a new method for designing broadband and tunable absorbers for various applications in sensing, detecting, and imaging.
