We have demonstrated how two types of waveform-selective metasurfaces, specifically, capacitor-based metasurfaces
and inductor-based metasurfaces vary their absorbing performances with various incident angles.
Capacitor-based metasurfaces were both numerically and experimentally shown to absorb short pulses more
effectively than CWs at the same frequency, while inductor-based metasurfaces more absorbed CWs than short
pulses. These waveform selectivities were reduced for a large incident angle, which was improved by properly
designing the metasurfaces including materials properties, time constants and input power. These results are
expected to be useful for applying waveform-selective metasurfaces for a wide range of conventional electromagnetic
devices and applications, which gives us an additional degree of freedom to control their functionalities (e.g.
