Iranian Scientists Develop Ultra-Thin Absorbers
Absorbers designed based on this concept can achieve a bandwidth-to-thickness ratio arbitrarily close to the ultimate bound. Utilizing this concept, they designed and experimentally verified an absorber yielding a very high bandwidth-to-thickness ratio.
“Our findings have the potential to make significant contributions to various industries, including defense, energy harvesting, and advanced communication systems, by addressing critical challenges in electromagnetic absorption technology,” said Ra’di.
“It’s incredibly rewarding to see our work attracting international recognition, not only from the scientific community but also from key players across various industries,” he added.
“I am immensely proud of my team for their dedication and hard work, which have led to these groundbreaking results. Publishing in a prestigious journal like Nature Communications is a testament to their exceptional efforts and the importance of our research,” Ra’di noted.
In a relevant development in 2023, Iranian specialists had also managed to produce special absorbents capable of removing pollutants from water to protect the environment.
“Absorbents with the capability to remove pollutants from water were produced in cooperation with the master’s and PhD students who had relevant theses,” Bahareh Kamyab Moqaddas, a faculty member of the Islamic Azad University’s Shiraz branch, told ANA.
“This product has no foreign counterpart and its production was inspired by the existing theses and raw materials available in Iran,” she added.
“The product absorbs heavy metals and colors from water quickly and has received approval for mass-production in cooperation with the companies stationed at the incubator center Islamic Azad University’s Shiraz branch,” Kamyab Moqaddas said.
