Ultra-narrowband light absorption is desired for many applications. A near-infrared TM-polarization (magnetic field is parallel to grating grooves) ultra-narrowband absorber with dielectric metamaterials has been reported theoretically in this paper. The simulation results show that we can achieve an ultra-narrowband absorption at the incident wavelength of [Formula: see text] with the absorption bandwidth less than 0.9 nm and the absorption rate more than 0.99 for TM polarization. At the same time, we find that the high absorption rate can only remain up to [Formula: see text], which means our absorber has high directivity. In addition, the field distribution at the resonance wavelength shows that the ultra-narrowband absorption in our absorber has originated from magnetic resonance effect. Our near-infrared TM-polarization ultra-narrowband absorber is a good candidate for laser stealth.
