A radio wave absorber induces technology innovation in the fields of astrophysics, industrial application for communication, and security. We recently developed and characterized an absorber for millimeter wavelengths. The absorber consists of epoxy, carbon black, and expanded polystyrene beads. The typical diameter of polystyrene beads corresponds to the scale of Mie scattering for the multi-scattering of photons in the absorber. The wide directivity of Mie scattering increases the effective length of the mean free path in the absorber. By applying this effect, we succeeded in improving the performance of the absorber. We characterized the reflectance and transmittance of the absorber in millimeter length and also measured the transmittance in sub-millimeter wavelength.
