VO2 based tunable THz metamaterial absorber. Simulated (a) absorption spectra of the hybrid metamaterial and (b) the absorption in the VO2 and gold material. (c) Transmittance (T) and reflectance (R) of the hybrid metamaterial and a bare 3-μm-thick VO2 film on a substrate at the resonance frequency (0.82 THz) and two more frequencies far from the resonance (0.40 and 1.20 THz). (d) Schematic of the metamaterial absorber unit cell. A vector plot of electric current density on the surface of (e) the gold cross and (f) the VO2 film. (g) Distribution of the x-component of the normalized magnetic field (|Hx|) in the spacer.
