Abstract
A nearly perfect absorber across an ultrabroad frequency range from 1 to 1200 THz is reported that combines a silicon moth-eye structure with a thin layer of pyrolytic carbon (PyC). The moth-eye design provides a perfect impedance match with air via gradual change of the refractive index at low frequencies and simultaneously serves as a multiple scatterer at high frequencies while coating the moth-eye structure with PyC enables ultrabroad band absorption. The combination of the strong absorption in the PyC conductive film and moth-eye surface allows to create a material capable of absorbing over 98% incident radiation across the entire THz–deep ultraviolet (DUV) frequency range. This makes this moth-eye/PyC structure a promising material for a wide range of applications including energy harvesting, electromagnetic shielding, and the development of an ideal blackbody radiation source.
