01–20 THz ultra-broadband perfect absorber via a flat multi-layer structure

Abstract

nanoparticle dopants, which can offer a gradually changed refractive index profile from 1.3 to 2.9. The experimental results show that 98% absorption can be achieved within the range of 0.1-20 THz. Moreover, the high absorption efficiency as well as the ultra-broad range can maintain for incident angle from 0 to 75° by the theoretical simulation.
