Abstract
- To address the increasing demand for high microwave‐absorbing performance, new polarization‐response wave‐absorbing metamaterials are developed herein inspired by the microstructure of locust compound eyes by employing bionics and optimization principles. The materials overcome a common limitation of wave‐absorbing metamaterials, wherein the performance substantially decreases with changes in the polarization mode, enabling the broadband absorption for x and y polarizations. The designed bioinspired materials have various shapes of structural units, triggering a multifrequency point response mechanism that effectively improves the wave‐absorbing performance. Experimental and simulation results show that the designed materials can form different equivalent circuits based on structural and polarization differences, influencing the overall wave‐absorbing performance. They exhibit an effective absorption bandwidth of ≈12 GHz (reflection loss < −10 dB) for x or y polarizations at a thickness of 2 mm. This study provides a typical example for future research on wave‐absorbing metamaterials with polarization‐response characteristics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
