Abstract

absorber metamaterial plasmonics MXene ESI Highly Cited Paper (Incites)
Control of light transmission and reflection through nanostructured materials has led to demonstration of metamaterial absorbers that have augmented the performance of energy harvesting applications of several optoelectronic and nanophotonic systems. Here, for the first time, a broadband plasmonic metamaterial absorber is fabricated using two-dimensional titanium carbide (Ti3C2T x ) MXene. Arrays of nanodisks made of Ti3C2T x exhibit strong localized surface plasmon resonances at near-infrared frequencies. By exploiting the scattering enhancement at the resonances and the optical losses inherent to Ti3C2T x MXene, high-efficiency absorption (∼90%) for a wide wavelength window of incident illumination (∼1.55 μm) has been achieved.
