Abstract

An ultrathin Terahertz Triple-band ideal meta material absorber with a brand-new design that is straightforward has been presented. The suggested terahertz meta material absorber has a unit cell that is made up of two D-shaped resonators with slots and a ground metallic plane. These elements are separated from one another by a polyimide dielectric substrate that has a thickness of 500 micrometers. The absorber construction that has been presented provides three distinct absorption peaks within the narrow frequency range of (0.4-0.46 THz) without producing any interference. In order to get a deeper comprehension of the mechanism behind the absorption process, an investigation into the electric field, the magnetic field, the surface current distribution, and the independence of the polarization angle has been carried out. It is anticipated that the configuration of the terahertz absorber that has been described would find use in applications relating to the lowering of radar cross-section, detection, imaging, and sensing. One of the contributions of this study is the description of a downsized and compact triple-band terahertz meta material absorber. In order to generate the unit cell of a terahertz absorber, an identical I-typed resonator, which is represented by a rectangular patch with two very small notches, is first deposited on top of a dielectric sheet and then a metallic mirror. The terahertz regime reveals three distinct frequency spots, and the design of the very small structure allows for virtually full absorption of all of them.
