研究目的
To design and numerically verify a broadband plasmonic absorber that works continuously in the ultraviolet to near-infrared region, based on an insulator-metal-insulator-metal (IMIM) four-layer structure, achieving continuous high absorption across a wide wavelength range.
研究成果
The designed broadband absorber based on IMIM structure and TiN ring-square nanodisk array achieves continuous high absorption from ultraviolet to near-infrared region (200–1200 nm) with an average absorbance of 94.85%. It features polarization independence, large incident angle insensitivity, and strong thermal stability, making it suitable for applications in solar energy collection, photothermal conversion, and invisibility cloak.
研究不足
The study is theoretical and numerical, with experimental verification proposed but not yet conducted. The practical fabrication and testing of the absorber may present challenges not accounted for in the simulations.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study employs the Finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method for numerical calculation of the broadband absorber's optical properties.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The absorber is modeled using a single unit cell with periodic boundary conditions applied in the x and y directions.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
The materials used include titanium nitride (TiN) and silica (SiO2), with their refractive indices taken from Palik experimental data.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The simulation involves setting up a plane wave source for normal incidence and using the Broadband Fixed Angle Source Technique (BFAST) mode for oblique incidence. Mesh size is set to 2 nm in the x, y, and z directions.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Absorption rates are calculated by obtaining reflection and transmission data from power monitors placed above and below the absorber structure.
