Abstract: Unlike traditional wave-absorbing and wave-transparent materials, integrated materials with functionalities of absorption and transmission exhibit in-band transmission and out-band absorption properties. These properties are important in reducing the target radar cross-section and suppressing electromagnetic interference. Traditional nanomaterials or ceramic materials cannot simultaneously achieve these two composite functions. They also lack the methods required for controlling the resonant frequency. With the rapid development of metamaterials, a new type of composite material with artificial electromagnetic microstructures to achieve absorption and transmission, also known as rasorber, has become a research hotspot in the recent years. However, because both in-band transparency and out-of-band absorption must be considered in their design, rasorbers exhibit some shortcomings, such as low Q value of transmission, narrow absorption bandwidth and poor frequency adjustability. In this paper, we introduce four kinds of rasorbers according to the relative locations of the transmission and absorption bands: absorption band below the transmission band (A-T), absorption band above the transmission band (T-A), transmission band between two absorption bands (A-T-A) and dual transmission bands (T-A-T). We also analyze and compare the resonant principles, remaining problems and future development directions of these rasorbers. Metamaterials with functionalities of absorption and transmission open up new possibilities for integrated communication and stealth. They present great application value when combined with other new functional materials, such as semiconductor materials, superconducting materials, phase change materials and liquid crystal materials.
