Single-layer graphene-based electrically-magnetically tunable multi-mode and broadband terahertz absorber: A comprehensive study

In this work, the narrowband and broadband absorption characteristics of single layer graphene-based photonic structures are investigated. The optical features were determined utilizing the 4 x 4 transfer matrix method. The results indicate that the proposed design incorporating monolayer graphene achieves absorption rates exceeding 90% across a bandwidth of 1.8 THz. Additionally, the suggested photonic configuration has the potential to function as a triple-mode narrowband absorber through the alteration of layer positioning or the substitution of materials. The numerical relationships between the refractive indexes of materials A, B, and C have been formulated to facilitate broadband and narrowband absorption. The absorption characteristics of the proposed design have been significantly influenced by the Fermi-level of Graphene and the magnetic field. The results indicate that the absorption value of both broadband and narrowband absorbers can be dynamically adjusted by manipulating the Fermi-level of Graphene and magnetic field. The photonic configuration being proposed presents novel opportunities for the development of electrically and magnetically tunable narrowband and broadband absorbers.
