Problems solved by technology

However, for multi-band metamaterial broadband absorbers, it is necessary to integrate two or more microstructure resonant units in one structural unit, which not only increases the difficulty of preparation, but also increases the number of microstructure resonant units that can actually be accommodated in one structural unit. The number is limited; for the hyperbolic metamaterial structure, in order to effectively use the slow optical waveguide mode to expand the bandwidth of light absorption, the structural unit often needs a gradually changing microstructure width, that is, the width of the microstructure in a structural unit increases with its own depth. increase, which brings great challenges to the fabrication of devices

Abstract

The present invention discloses a method for realizing ultra-wideband light absorption and a composite micro-structure. The method combines a metal-medium periodic film stack with a metal micro-structure array, namely, carries a metal micro-structure array above a conventional metal-medium periodic film stack, combines wide-band near-field reflection provided by the metal-medium periodic film stack and surface plasmon resonance effect of the metal micro-structure array, to achieve ultra-wideband light absorption enhancement in a visible-near infrared band. In addition, a broadband absorbing device designed by the method does not require use of precious metals such as gold or silver, has relatively low preparation costs, has superior polarization-insensitive broadband absorption performanceand extremely high manufacturing tolerances, and has great application prospects in the fields of enhanced nano imaging, stealth materials, solar cells, light modulators, and touch screens.
