Abstract
Abstract A dual‐band terahertz metamaterial absorber using one‐layer periodically patterned hexagon graphene structure is proposed. By periodically loading six graphene stubs to the honeycomb hexagon graphene structure without increase of the overall size, a new high‐frequency absorption peak will be obtained to realize a dual‐band frequency response. By tuning the structural parameters or Fermi energy levels of the presented terahertz metamaterial absorber, both of the two absorption bands will be changed to the required working frequencies for design specifications. Moreover, the proposed terahertz metamaterial absorber has the properties of polarization independence and incident angle insensitivity, which are of great significance in the applications of some detecting and sensing systems. This work will be a good candidate for the design guidance of various metamaterial absorbers using graphene with single or dual absorption bands.
