摘要

Perfect wave absorption across all wavelengths is forbidden by the causality principle. Here we demonstrate an approach that circumvents this fundamental limitation in acoustics by coupling unstable components to achieve zero static modulus. Both heuristic model simulations based on different mechanisms (electromagnetic and mechanical) demonstrate the same ultra-broadband absorption exceeding 95% at all wavelengths greater than 114 times the absorber thickness, with simultaneous efficient reciprocal radiation capabilities. Theoretical analyses reveal that, counter-intuitively, this strategy approaches ideal blackbody behavior as thickness approaches zero. These findings indicate that fundamental physical constraints no longer prevent blackbody realization, leaving only material limitations as the remaining challenge.
