Metamaterial Perfect Absorbers for Controlling Bandwidth: Single-Peak/Multiple-Peaks/Tailored-Band/Broadband.

Metamaterial absorbers have garnered significant interest due to their unique electromagnetic properties, which facilitate the efficient absorption of electromagnetic radiation in a specific frequency range or multiple frequency ranges. The metamaterial absorbers are designed based on artificially engineered structures that enable tailored absorption properties. These structures might include multiple resonances or incorporate electrical resistive components to achieve broadband absorption. This review paper provides a comprehensive analysis of the progress made in the field of the bandwidth of metamaterial absorbers, encompassing the underlying design principles, key performance characteristics, diverse applications, and perspectives for further research. The paper draws to a conclusion by outlining the potential future directions for further advancements in this exciting area of research, and highlighting the challenges that need to be addressed for the widespread adoption of metamaterial absorbers.
