摘要
This paper proposes a dual-band tunable broadband metamaterials absorber, achieved absorption in 3-5 μm mid-wavelength infrared (MWIR) and 8-12 μm long-wavelength infrared (LWIR). The absorber is composed of periodic units, and each unit is composed of a bottom ideal electric conductor-dielectric layer-graphene layer-metal fractal cross resonator in which a graphene layer-metal fractal cross is embedded. The metal structure uses the multi-scale self-similar characteristics of fractal geometry to create multiple resonances for the same element structure. Numerical simulations were carried out using the finite element method (FEM). The optimization results show that the designed single-layer 3-Level graphene-metal fractal cross absorber produces broadband absorption of 2.86 μm (absorption >90%) in the LWIR region and an average absorption rate of 92.1%. By adding the bottom layer 3 × 3 graphene-metal fractal cross array structure, a resonant absorption peak is generated in the MWIR region, and the broadband absorption of 0.38 μm (absorption >80%), and it achieves broadband absorption of 2.48 μm (absorption >90%) in the LWIR region. For the double-layer graphene-metal structure, the resonance bandwidth and absorptivity of the absorber can be tuned by adjusting the Fermi energy of each layer of graphene. Due to its broadband, polarization insensitivity, high absorption, flexible tunable, and other characteristics, the proposed metamaterials absorber is beneficial for fabricating nano-optoelectronic devices and can be applied in thermal imaging and infrared detection. • The proposed a tunable broadband absorber based on graphene-metal fractal cross technology. • The multi-scale self-similar characteristics of fractal geometry to continuously evolve from a 1-Level fractal cross to a 3-Level fractal cross to achieve the absorption peaks of MWIR and LWIR atmospheric windows. • This device has broad application prospects in thermal imaging, infrared detection because of its advantages of broadband, polarization insensitivity, high absorption, and flexible tunable.
