Abstract

A metamaterial-based plasmonic absorber is designed, fabricated, and characterized. The absorber consists of a periodic array of Ti unit-cells at the top, a layer of Al at the bottom, and a thin SiO₂ layer that is sandwiched between the top and the bottom layers. Simulations and experiments show that the proposed design supports an average absorption of 96% over the wavelength range changing from 280 nm to 1000 nm (frequency range between ultraviolet [UV] and near-infrared [IR]). Furthermore, the absorption spectrum is polarization insensitive and has a large incidence angle tolerance. The proposed absorber has the potential to be used in photovoltaic applications such as solar cells and photo-detectors.
