Dual band visible metamaterial absorbers based on four identical ring patches

This paper proposes a dual-frequency tunable ideal visible light metamaterial absorber based on the subwavelength range, which achieves perfect absorption in the visible light band. The absorber consists of an Au reflector and a nodal (SiO2) layer, and a top Au absorber layer. The absorption structure on the top of the absorber adopts the style of ancient Chinese coins and forms a square arrays structure. As a result, the absorber's two absorption peaks are perfect absorption peaks, and the absorption rate can reach 99.9%. In addition, we also researched the influence of adjusting the absorber's geometric parameters on the absorber, and analyzed the absorption mechanism under different circumstances. Through research, it can be known that the absorber has near-perfect dual-band absorption characteristics that do not depend on polarization angle and incident angle insensitivity. Therefore, the absorber designed by us will have a broad application prospect in the filter, solar cell, and so on.
