摘要

This research presents a novel metal-dielectric (Al-Al2O3) multilayer structure operating in the nanometer range, exhibiting exceptional absorption properties in the visible range at a glancing angle. The structure consists of two layers of Al-Al2O3 with an additional dielectric Al2O3 layer atop an air-like aerogel substrate. The proposed assembly enables tunability of absorption characteristics by varying the thickness of the top dielectric layer. Effective electromagnetic property analysis reveals a remarkable negative refractive index, categorizing the structure as a negative index metamaterial. Its simple planar configuration makes it facile for fabrication, promising potential applications in various sensing and device development domains.
