Abstract A multi-band metamaterial antenna is proposed to operate at the terahertz (THz) band for medical applications. The proposed structure is designed on a polyimide as a support layer, and its radiating elements are made of graphene. Initially, the design is started with a conventional shape showing a single operating frequency at 1.1 THz. To achieve a multi-band operating frequency, the conventional shape was replaced with the proposed metamaterial as a radiating patch that has properties not exist in nature. The multi-band frequencies are obtained without compromising the overall size of the design. The overall size is 600 × 600 × 25 μm³. The operating… More >

Abstract This study presents an Epsilon Mu near-zero (EMNZ) nanostructured metamaterial absorber (NMMA) for visible regime applications. The resonator and dielectric layers are made of tungsten (W) and quartz (fused), where the working band is expanded by changing the resonator layer's design. Due to perfect impedance matching with plasmonic resonance characteristics, the proposed NMMA structure is achieved an excellent absorption of 99.99% at 571 THz, 99.50% at 488.26 THz, and 99.32% at 598 THz frequencies. The absorption mechanism is demonstrated by the theory of impedance, electric field, and power loss density distributions, respectively. The geometric parameters are explored and analyzed to… More >
