Simple periodic structures of stacked metal and dielectric microdisks can display very high absorbance over multiple bands at infrared frequencies (3-10 mu m wavelengths). The stack can be envisaged as intersecting tri-layers, each tri-layer composed of metal-dielectric-metal disks that form independent impedance matched resonators, and give rise to large absorbance at different frequencies. Numerical simulations show that dual-band and multi-band absorbers with near unity absorbance on all their bands can be flexibly designed whereby the dielectric materials determine the absorption band of the metamaterial. The multi-band absorber is reasonably polarization insensitive and the absorbance remains large even with large angles of incidence. This approach of multi-layered stacked metamaterials is compared and shown to be superior to another approach to multiple-band metamaterial perfect absorbers having closely packed resonators within a unit cell.
