▎ 摘　　要

A new, transparent, metal-free absorber, based on the use of multilayer graphene/dielectric laminates (GLs), is proposed for applications in the low-terahertz frequency range. The designed absorber has a total thickness of around 70 mu m and consists of a front matching dielectric layer followed by a GL, a dielectric spacer and a back GL. The laminates are periodic structures constituted of graphene sheets separated by 50-nm-thick polyethylene terephthalate (PET) interlayers, while the matching layer and the spacer are one-quarter-wavelength thick and made of PET. The GLs are modeled as homogeneous-equivalent single layers (ESLs) characterized by their sheet resistances R-s. An innovative analytical method is proposed in order to select R-s values optimizing the electromagnetic wave absorption either in low-gigahertz or low-terahertz frequency range. The frequency spectra of the absorption, reflection and transmission coefficients are computed in the range up to 4 THz by using different values of R-s. Then, realistic R-s values of chemically doped graphene monolayers over PET substrates are considered. The designed absorbers are characterized by an absorption coefficient with a peak value of about 0.8 at the first resonant frequency of 1.1 THz, and a 1.4 THz bandwidth centered at 1.5 THz with reflection coefficient below - 10 dB. Moreover, the optical transmittance of the proposed absorbers are computed by means of the optical matrix theory and it is found to be greater than 86% in all the visible ranges.
