title = "A Wide-angle and Polarization-independent Plasmonic Absorber for UV to Near-IR Range",
abstract = "A metamaterial-based plasmonic absorber is designed, fabricated, and characterized. The absorber consists of a periodic array of Ti unit-cells at the top, a layer of Al at the bottom, and a thin SiO2 layer that is sandwiched between the top and the bottom layers. Simulations and experiments show that the proposed design supports an average absorption of 96\% over the wavelength range changing from 280 nm to 1000 nm (frequency range between ultraviolet [UV] and near-infrared [IR]). Furthermore, the absorption spectrum is polarization insensitive and has a large incidence angle tolerance. The proposed absorber has the potential to be used in photovoltaic applications such as solar cells and photo-detectors.",
