General solution for single-layer electromagnetic-wave absorber
Abstract
A general solution for perfect absorption under normal incidence in a single-layer homogeneous absorber backed by a perfect conductor is derived considering both electric and magnetic losses. Design curves and equations are given for the lowest-order or minimum-thickness solutions, and its possible use in the design and fabrication of practical absorbing materials is also illustrated.
