Ultrawideband Terahertz Absorber with Dielectric Cylinders Loaded Patterned Graphene Structure

In this paper, we theoretically designed and numerically analyzed an ultrabroadband meta-absorber with near unity absorptivity that works in terahertz spectrum. A wideband meta-absorber composed of bilayer patterned graphene and dielectric cylinder array with high symmetry was proposed. The wideband...
