Popis: | In this paper, a periodic structure based on metallic split-ring resonators is integrated into micro-bridge structures of THz microbolometer array to achieve high THz wave absorption in a wide frequency range. With a small unit size of 35 μm × 35 μm, the effect of split-ring structure on THz wave absorption characteristics of the multilayer structure array is studied to manipulate the resonance absorption frequencies. The absorption bandwidth is effectively increased by integrating a combined structure of split-ring and metallic disk. Broadband THz absorption is formed by coupling the absorption peaks of different structures. The periodic structure of dual-ring combined with a metallic disk provides a broadband THz wave absorption in the range of 4–7 THz. The highest absorption in the band reaches 90% and the lowest absorption is higher than 40%. The designed structure is process-compatible and easy to implement for small-pixel THz microbolometers with high absorption in a wide spectrum range. The research provides a scheme for broadband THz sensing and real-time imaging at room temperature. |
