UWB Frequency-Selective Surface Absorber Based on Graphene Featuring Wide-Angle Stability

In this paper, an ultra-wideband and polarization-insensitive frequency-selective surface absorber is presented with oblique incident stable behavior. Different from conventional absorbers, the absorption behavior is much less deteriorated with the increase in the incidence angle. Two hybrid resonators, which are realized by symmetrical graphene patterns, are employed to obtain the desired broadband and polarization-insensitive absorption performance. The optimal impedance-matching behavior is designed at the oblique incidence of electromagnetic waves, and an equivalent circuit model is used to analyze and facilitate the mechanism of the proposed absorber. The results indicate that the absorber can maintain a stable absorption performance with a fractional bandwidth (FWB) of 136.4% up to 40°. With these performances, the proposed UWB absorber could be more competitive in aerospace applications.
