Abstract
Metasurface-based terahertz absorbers have recently gained much attention in research on terahertz devices. However, the actual applications of such absorbers are severely constrained by issues such as difficult preparation procedures, constrained bandwidth, polarization, and incidence-angle sensitivity. This paper proposes a tunable broadband terahertz absorber scheme based on the metasurface of all-dielectric microspheres. The device consists of a single layer of strontium titanate microspheres compounded with a thin-film base. The Mie resonance of the microspheres works together with the metal film to achieve excellent absorption performance, while the modal coupling between the microspheres greatly broadens the absorption bandwidth. According to these findings, the device is capable of tunable absorption performance with a bandwidth of up to 0.18 THz. The terahertz broadband absorber proposed herein has a simple structure, superior performance, and low preparation cost, as well as potential applications in terahertz sensing, terahertz detection, and terahertz imaging.
