单壁碳纳米管太赫兹超表面窄带吸收及其传感特性

Due to their excellent electrical and optical properties, carbon nanotubes have broad application prospects in the field of optoelectronics. In this work the vacuum filtration method is used to obtain an isotropic single-walled carbon nanotube film by the dispersion of single-walled carbon nanotube powder through vacuum filtration; on the basis of extracting the dielectric parameters of the thin film in a range from 0.4 to 2.0 THz, a novel terahertz metasurface narrowband absorber based on single-walled carbon nanotube films is designed and prepared. This metasurface absorber is composed of square and I-shaped narrow slot resonators. The experimental and simulation results show that the proposed terahertz metasurface absorber exhibits four distinct resonance absorption peaks at 0.65, 0.85, 1.16, and 1.31 THz, respectively, achieving a perfect absorption of up to 90%. The absorption mechanism of this novel multi band terahertz metasurface is elucidated by using the theory of multiple reflection interference. By covering dielectric layers with different refractive indices on the surface of metasurface device, the sensing performance of metasurface acting as refractive index sensor is studied in depth. The research results indicate that this new type of metasurface absorber has high sensitivity for refractive index sensing, providing new ideas and solutions for further developing carbon-based new terahertz metasurface absorbers.
