Abstract
In this article, the structural stability of a metasurface absorber that works at 2.8 THz is analyzed. Since the absorber is made of metallic titanium, its elemental inclusions will be heated up and expand when absorbing electromagnetic waves. To evaluate the accumulated heat, the structural thermal expansion and the stability of the wave-absorbing performance, electromagnetism-thermodynamics-structural mechanics multiphysics simulations are conducted. Based on the thermal stability study, thermistors are further introduced into the metasurface, leading to two thermal controlled terahertz absorbers. Numerical experiments show that the absorbers present a peak absorption coefficient of 92.7% at 2.79 THz up to the temperature of 1761.4 K. When the temperature rises, the absorption frequencies of the two absorbers shift to 3.51 THz and 3.94 THz, with the peak absorption coefficients of 92.8% and 93.8%, respectively.
期刊介绍:
The ACES Journal is devoted to the exchange of information in computational electromagnetics, to the advancement of the state of the art, and to the promotion of related technical activities. A primary objective of the information exchange is the elimination of the need to "re-invent the wheel" to solve a previously solved computational problem in electrical engineering, physics, or related fields of study.
The ACES Journal welcomes original, previously unpublished papers, relating to applied computational electromagnetics. All papers are refereed.
A unique feature of ACES Journal is the publication of unsuccessful efforts in applied computational electromagnetics. Publication of such material provides a means to discuss problem areas in electromagnetic modeling. Manuscripts representing an unsuccessful application or negative result in computational electromagnetics is considered for publication only if a reasonable expectation of success (and a reasonable effort) are reflected.
The technical activities promoted by this publication include code validation, performance analysis, and input/output standardization; code or technique optimization and error minimization; innovations in solution technique or in data input/output; identification of new applications for electromagnetics modeling codes and techniques; integration of computational electromagnetics techniques with new computer architectures; and correlation of computational parameters with physical mechanisms.
