Abstract

A carbon-based conductive film-based ultralight wide-angle absorbing metamaterial with full-frequency absorption within 2-18 GHz, including a first dielectric substrate, a first carbon-based conductive film array structure layer, a second dielectric substrate, a second carbon-based conductive film array structure layer, a third dielectric substrate, and a third carbon-based conductive film array structure layer, which are laminated in sequence with the first dielectric substrate as a bottom. The first, second, and third carbon-based conductive film array structure layers are each composed of discrete carbon-base conductive film patches arranged in a periodic array. A method for preparing such absorbing metamaterial is also provided.
