description This paper proposes a near-perfect absorption device based on a cross-shaped titanium nanostructure and a multilayered structure. The multilayered bottom structure consists of alternately SiO<sub>2</sub> and Ti. The whole device is put on a TiN substrate. The coupling between cross-shaped titanium nanostructures, and that between the cross-shaped titanium nanostructure and bottom multilayer, can further enhance the absorption at some wavelength where most of the energy is reflected or passes through in the device with a single structure. According to the simulation results, the device presents a nearly perfect absorption in a wavelength range from 300 nm to 2000 nm. The average absorptance in the wavelength range from 500 nm to 1400 nm exceeds 96%. This paper also provides a new idea for realizing perfect absorption, which is extensively used in sensing, controllable thermal emission, solar energy harvesting solar thermo-photovoltaic devices, and optoelectronic metrology.
