We propose to use logarithmic spiral resonators for efficient absorption of microwaves. By combining their scale invariant geometries and Fabry-Perot-type resonances stemming from the fundamental TM mode, we realize a microwave metasurface with broadband absorption performance. The metasurface comprises logarithmic spiral resonators backed with a metallic surface and it can absorb >95% of incident microwave energy within the frequency range of 6 GHz - 37 GHz. We discuss the physics underlying the broadband absorption and the crucial role of vortex energy flow. The study opens a new direction of electromagnetic wave absorption by employing the scale invariance of Maxwell equations.

We theoretically and experimentally propose two designs of broadband low-frequency acoustic metasurface absorbers (Sample I/Sample II) for the frequency ranges of 458Hz~968Hz and 231Hz~491Hz (larger than 1 octave), with absorption larger than 0.8, an
d having the ultra-thin thickness of 5.2cm and 10.4cm respectively ({lambda}/15 for the lowest working frequency and {lambda}/7.5 for the highest frequency). The designed supercell consists of 16 different unit cells corresponding to 16 eigen frequencies for resonant absorptions. The coupling of multiple resonances leads to broadband absorption effect in the full range of the targeted frequency spectrum. In particular, we propose to combine gradient-change channel and coiled structure to achieve simultaneous impedance matching and minimal occupied space, leading to the ultra-thin thickness of the metasurface absorbers. Our conceived ultra-thin low-frequency broadband absorbers may lead to pragmatic implementations and applications in noise control field.
A broadband sound absorption attained by a deep-subwavelength structure is of great interest to the noise control community especially for extremely low frequencies (20-100 Hz) in room acoustics. Coupling multiple different resonant unit cells has be
en an effective strategy to achieve a broadband sound absorption. In this paper, we report on an analytical, numerical and experimental study of a low-frequency broadband (50-63 Hz, one third octave band), high absorption (average absorption coefficient around 93%), near-omnidirectional (0{deg}-75{deg}) acoustic metasurface absorber composed of 4 coupled unit cells at a thickness of 15.4 cm (1/45 of the wavelength at 50 Hz). The absorption by such a deep-subwavelength structure occurs due to a strong coupling between unit cells, which is realized by carefully engineering geometric parameters of each unit cell, especially the judicious assignment of lateral size to each unit cell. To further broaden the bandwidth (50-100 Hz, one octave band), a design with 19 unit cells coupled in a supercell is analytically studied to achieve an average absorption coefficient of 85% for a wide angle range (0{deg}-75{deg}) at a thickness of 20 cm (1/34 of wavelength at 50 Hz). Two additional degrees of freedom, the lateral size of supercell and the number of unit cells in the supercell, are demonstrated to facilitate such a causally optimal design which is close to the ideally causal optimality. The proposed design methodology may solve the long-standing issue for low frequency absorption in room acoustics.
An orbital angular momentum (OAM) detection approach at microwave band is proposed. A transmittance function is exploited to model a transmissive metasurface. Then the metasurface is designed to convert an OAM wave to multiple waves, only one of whic
h is gaussian. The radiation direction of the gaussian wave is distinguishable according to the order of incident OAM. Consequently, by locating the gaussian wave, the incident OAM can be conveniently determined. We use a simple field source to simulate the incident OAM wave in fullwave simulation. It largely simplifies the simulation process when an incident wave carrying OAM is needed. Both numerical and full-wave simulation results are provided to validate our design and they show a good agreement with each other. Then, the metasurface is optimized for high directivity. Our work can provide an efficient and effective way for OAM detection in radio communications.
The harvesting of ambient radio-frequency (RF) energy is an attractive and clean way to realize the idea of self-powered electronics. Here we present a design for a microwave energy harvester based on a nanoscale spintronic diode (NSD). This diode co
ntains a magnetic tunnel junction with a canted magnetization of the free layer, and can convert RF energy over the frequency range from 100 MHz to 1.2 GHz into DC electric voltage. An attractive property of the developed NSD is the generation of an almost constant DC voltage in a wide range of frequencies of the external RF signals. We further show that the developed NSD provides sufficient DC voltage to power a low-power nanodevice - a black phosphorus photo-sensor. Our results demonstrate that the developed NSD could pave the way for using spintronic detectors as building blocks for self-powered nano-systems, such as implantable biomedical devices, wireless sensors, and portable electronics.
We investigate the possibility to model a metasurface, defined as a zero-thickness sheet of surface polarization currents, by a thin slab, characterized by a subwavelength thickness and usual voluminal medium parameters. First, we elaborate a general
equivalence relation between the metasurface and the slab in terms of average electromagnetic fields. Then, we derive exact relations between the metasurface and slab susceptibilities and validate them by full-wave simulations. Finally, we discuss the simple and insightful Average Field Approximation (AFA) formula, illustrate its inappropriate for strong metasurface field transformations, and establish its range of validity. All of these developments are restricted to the simplest case of a uniform isotropic metasurface under normal plane wave incidence. We conclude from the complexity of the equivalence for this case, that a metasurface is generally best modeled in terms of Generalized Sheet Transition Conditions (GSTCs).
