Abstract:
By applying meander-line for electrical loss and magnetic material for magnetic loss, we present a metamaterial absorber which is wide-spaced and dual-band (1.35—2.24 GHz and 10.37—12.37 GHz). The novelty of this study mainly lies in a combination of two kinds of losses to consume electromagnetic energy, which can get better dual-band absorption. In the electrical loss layer, meander-line structures are printed on both surfaces of the substrate and the structure series with resistors. Considering the need for miniaturization, we connect eight metallic vias with these meander-line areas to form a compact 2.5-dimensional (2.5D) structure. The dimension of the unit cell is miniaturized to be 5.94 mm×5.94 mm, about 0.035λ at the center frequency of the lower absorption band. In the magnetic loss layer, the 0.4 mm thick magnetic material is employed on a metallic ground plane. In addition, the complex permittivity and complex permeability of the magnetic material are given. Finally, we fabricate a prototype of the proposed absorber and obtain a measurement result which is in good agreement with the full-wave simulation result.
