Wide-angle and polarization-independent chiral metamaterial absorber
arXiv:1005.3869 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.80.033108
Abstract
We propose a resonant microwave absorber based on a chiral metamaterial. We show, with both numerical simulations and experimental measurements, that the absorber works well for a very wide range of incident angles for different polarizations. The proposed absorber has a compact size and the absorption is close to one for a wide range of incident angles and it is a good candidate for potential applications.
