description | The design of a broadband tunable absorber is proposed based on a thin vanadium dioxide metasurface, which is composed of a simple array of vanadium dioxide and a bottom gold film. When the conductivity of vanadium dioxide is equal to <inline-formula><tex-math notation="LaTeX">$\text{2000}\ {\Omega ^{ - 1}}{\text{cm}^{ - 1}}$</tex-math></inline-formula>, simulated absorptance exceeds 90% with 71% bandwidth from 0.47 to 0.99 THz and full width at half maximum is 98% from 0.354 to 1.036 THz with center frequency of 0.695 THz. Simulated results show that absorptance peak can be tuned from 5% to 100% when the conductivity changes continually from <inline-formula><tex-math notation="LaTeX">$\text{10}\ {\Omega ^{ - 1}}{\text{cm}^{ - 1}}$</tex-math></inline-formula> to <inline-formula><tex-math notation="LaTeX">$\text{2000}\ {\Omega ^{ - 1}}{\text{cm}^{ - 1}}$</tex-math></inline-formula>. The designed absorber may have useful applications in terahertz spectrum such as energy harvesting, thermal emitter, and sensing. |
