Optically Transparent Flexible Broadband Metamaterial Absorber Based on Topology Optimization Design

open access: yesMicromachines, 2021
A conformal metamaterial absorber with simultaneous optical transparency and broadband absorption is proposed in this paper. The absorptance above 90% over a wide frequency range of 5.3–15 GHz can be achieved through topology optimization combined with a

Engineering flexible superblack materials

open access: yesNature Communications
Abstract Flexible superblack materials are crucial for minimizing stray light, complicating object identification, and serving as low reflectance standards. However, the applications of existing superblack materials are limited due to challenges related to cost-effective scalable manufacturing, surface durability, and material conformability.
