Abstract :
In this work a Metamaterial (MTM) absorber design is introduced that has a very wide absorption characteristics over the midrange Infrared (IR) band, the proposed structure comprised of 4 layers, the extra layer adds a degree of freedom in optimizing the response compared the conventional 3-layered absorbers. The simulations revealed a broadband absorption region that extends from 3μm up to 12μm of light wavelength.
