The invention discloses a
graphene based terahertz
broadband adjustable
wave absorption device, and relates to a
wave absorption device. The
graphene based terahertz
broadband adjustable
wave absorption device is of a three-layer structure which comprises a periodic mesh-shaped
graphene layer, a
dielectric layer and a
metal layer from top to bottom, and is characterized in that the horizontal period of a
unit structure of the periodic mesh-shaped graphene layer is Px, the longitudinal period of the
unit structure is Py, the graphene width has a characteristic of continuous gradual change modulation, the edge of the periodic mesh-shaped graphene layer has a sine curve, a
cosine curve, a parabolic curve, an elliptic curve or other curves capable of realizing graphene width gradual change modulation, the maximum width Wmax is consistent with the horizontal period Px, and the minimum width Wmin ranges between 0 and the horizontal period Px; the
dielectric layer is made of an insulator such as
silicon dioxide, and the thickness td of the
dielectric layer is associated with the wave
absorption frequency band; and the
metal layer is made of a good conductor such as gold or silver, and the thickness tm of the
metal layer is greater than the
skin depth of incident
waves. The graphene based terahertz
broadband adjustable wave absorption device can realize broadband strong absorption for terahertz
waves, the
absorption rate of incident broadband terahertz
waves is adjusted on a large scale, and the structure is simple.
