Abstract / Description of output

In this letter, a Jaumann-like rasorber is examined, which offers wideband absorption, angular stability, and polarization insensitivity. The structure is defined by three layers with two resistive layers placed on top of a lossless layer. Also, all three layers use capacitors to ensure compactness for the metasurface rasorber. These features provide broad angular stability up to 55° while also maintaining low insertion losses of about 1 dB and only 0.6 dB for measured broadside incidence. The rasorber is also shown to work as a radome in the near field of a planar antenna array.
