In this letter, a novel hybrid metamaterial consisting of periodic array of graphene nano-patch and gold split-ring resonator has been theoretically proposed to realize an active control of the electromagnetically induced transparency analog in the mid-infrared regime. A narrow transparency window occurs over a wide absorption band due to the coupling of the high-quality factor mode provided by graphene dipolar resonance and the low-quality factor mode of split-ring resonator magnetic resonance, which is interpreted in terms of the phase change and surface charge distribution. In addition to the obvious dependence of the spectral feature on the geometric parameters of the elements and the surrounding environmental dielectric constant, our proposed metamaterial shows great tunabilities to the transparency window by tuning the Fermi energy of the graphene nano-patch through electric gating and its electronic mobility without changing the geometric parameters. Furthermore, our proposed metamaterial combines low losses with very large group index associated with the resonance response in the transparency window, showing it suitable for slow light applications and nanophotonic devices for light filter and biosensing.  相似文献

A nanoscale Fano resonator composed of a hybrid graphene disk-gold ring combination is reported in this letter. The inner narrow dipolar resonance of a discrete state induced by graphene interferes with the outside broad dipolar resonance of a continuum state induced by gold, thus forming an asymmetric Fano transparency within the absorption window. The metastructure exhibits a wide tunable band along with an excellent refractive index sensing capability of 2344 nm/RIU. The geometry adjustment modulates the spectral response giving chances to the equivalent of electromagnetically induce transparency. Moreover, the group index exceeds 760 within the transparency window enabling a potential use in slow light or light storage applications. The analytic analysis is in accordance with the numerical simulation results.  相似文献

We have numerically investigated an analog of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in a metal-dielectric-metal (MDM) waveguide bend. The geometry consists of two asymmetrical stubs extending parallel to an arm of a straight MDM waveguide bend. Finite-difference time-domain simulations show that a transparent window is located at 1550 nm, which is the phenomenon of plasmonic-induced transparency (PIT). Signal wavelength is assumed to be 820 nm. The velocity of the plasmonic mode can be largely slowed down while propagating along the MDM bends. Multiple-peak plasmon-induced transparency can be realized by cascading multiple cavities with different lengths and suitable cavity-cavity separations. Large group index up to 73 can be obtained at the PIT window. Our proposed configuration may thus be applied to storing and stopping light in plasmonic waveguide bends. In addition, the relationship between the transmission characteristics and the geometric parameters including the radius of the nano-ring, the coupling distance, and the deviation length between the stub and the nano-ring is studied in a step further. The velocity of the plasmonic mode can be largely slowed down while propagating along the MDM bends. For indirect coupling, formation of transparency window is determined by resonance detuning, but, evolution of transparency is mainly attributed to the change of the coupling distance. Theoretical results may provide a guideline for control of light in highly integrated optical circuits. The characteristics of our plasmonic system indicate a significant potential application in integrated optical circuits such as optical storage, ultrafast plasmonic switch, highly performance filter, and slow light devices.  相似文献

A graphene-based metamaterial with tunable electromagnetically induced transparency is numerically studied in this paper. The proposed structure consists of a graphene layer composed of H shape between two cut wires, by breaking symmetry can control EIT-like effects and by increasing the asymmetry in the structure has strong coupling between elements. It is important that the peak frequency of transmission window can be dynamically controlled over a broad frequency range by varying the chemical potential of graphene layer. The results show that high refractive index sensitivity and figure of merit can be achieved in asymmetrical structures which is good for sensing applications. We calculated the group delay and the results show we can control the group velocity by varying the S parameter in asymmetrical structure. The characteristics of our system indicate important potential applications in integrated optical circuits such as optical storage, ultrafast plasmonic switches, high performance filters, and slow-light devices.  相似文献

Plasmon-induced transparency (PIT), an analog of electromagnetically induced transparency, originates from destructive interference of plasmonic resonators with different quality factors and brings about the extreme dispersion within the narrow transparency window, promising remarkable potential for slow light, nonlinear optics and biochemical sensors. However, sometimes a broad transmission frequency band is more desirable for other applications such as bandpass filters. In general, strong coupling between bright and dark plasmon modes in coupled resonant systems leads to wide transparency bandwidth at the PIT resonance. Based on multi-oscillator coupling theory, a metasurface structure consisting of three perpendicularly connected metallic nanobars is purposefully designed and numerically demonstrated to support broadband PIT spectral response. The near-field patterns indicate that the broadening of the transparent band results from the constructive interference of dual excitations of the single non-radiative (dark) resonator by the two radiative (bright) antennas. These results show that this scheme of bright-dark-bright mode coupling is significantly beneficial for designing filters operating over a broad frequency range.

In this paper, we propose a novel planar semiconductor metamaterial which consists of two H-shape structures which are nested together and composed of InSb deposited on a thin quartz substrate. The two H-shape structures serve as the bright modes and are exited strongly by the incident wave and interact with each other. This coupling leads to a powerful plasmonically induced transparency (PIT) effect at terahertz frequencies. This scheme provides a way to achieve slow light, and the corresponding group index can reach a value of 1300. We calculated group velocity dispersion (GVD) and saw this structure was a low group velocity dispersion (LGVD) system. Therefore, the proposed structure will be useful in designing slow-light devices, optical buffers, delay lines, and ultra-sensitive sensors. We also showed that the proposed design is tunable, namely changes in geometric parameters and type of semiconductor can largely change the group index. In addition, we considered another application for our design that is a thermal dual-band terahertz metamaterial modulator and numerically obtained frequency and amplitude modulation depth, tunability bandwidth, and loss for this device. We obtained an amplitude modulator depth of 99.7 % and a frequency modulator depth of 47 % that verified this structure can be used in wireless communication and encode information systems in the THz regime.  相似文献

Broadband light transparency of metallic structures has long been pursued due to the potential applications in the optoelectronic communications, flat panel displays, and clean solar energy. Considerable efforts have been made on the multiband electromagnetic wave transparency of plasmonic metamolecules. However, far less work has been focused on the multispectral light transparency of a seamless metal film. Here, we for the first time propose a seamless metal film structure coated by double conventional plasmonic crystals and demonstrate the observed multispectral broadband light transparency behavior. A maximum transmittance larger than 92 % is achieved. The average transmittance of the whole spectral range from 550 to 1,100 nm is exceeding 45.8 %, suggesting the achievement of an ultra-broadband semi-transparent window. Particularly, the transparency features are highly scalable by tuning the structural parameters. Plasmonic resonances and the metallic particle–film plasmonic interactions are responsible for the observed optical transparency properties. These findings and merits make the proposed structure a good candidate for numerous potential applications, including the optoelectronic components, transparent displayers, and light harvesting.  相似文献

We propose dynamically switchable multispectral plasmon-induced transparency (PIT) with high modulation depth in a three-dimensional metamaterial standing on a flexible substrate. The proposed metamaterial is composed of a pair of metal–insulator–metal (MIM) nano-cut-wires and a pair of insulator–metal–insulator (IMI) nano-cut-wires. Results show that two PIT windows can be achieved because of the near-field coupling between the dipole supported by the IMI nano-cut-wire and two quadrupoles supported by the MIM structures. These two PIT windows can be blue-shifted or even flipped over by stretching the substrate along one direction, or be switched off by stretching along the other direction. A classical coupled oscillator model is developed to quantitatively describe and explain these results. We expect this work will find promising applications in multispectral sensors, slow light devices and nonlinear optical devices.

In this paper, an electromagnetically induced transparency-like metamaterial for terahertz is designed. The structure is based on cross-shaped and SRRs composite elements. It can achieve dual-frequency transparent window in a wide frequency band and is insensitive to electromagnetic wave polarization. The resonance points of transmission peaks are 198.55 and 254.18 GHz, respectively. The electromagnetic transmittance can reach 95.6% and 97.7%, respectively, which has excellent electromagnetic transmission effect. The measured results are in good agreement with the trend of simulation curve. At the same time, flexible polyimide with stable performance is selected as the base material of metamaterial dielectric, which can be widely used in microwave fields such as filters, sensors, and slow light devices.

Numerical and theoretical studies were conducted on the plasmon induced transparency (PIT) of the symmetrical structure of Dirac semi-metal films (DSFS). The films have a parallel strip and split resonant ring structure. After analysing the surface current intensity and distribution, it was found that the electromagnetically induced transparency is as a result of destructive interference between these two structures, with the amplitude modulation depth of the frequency of the transmission window reaching as high as 99.09%. Moreover, by adjusting the Fermi level of the DSFS, the Fermi level changed from 50 to 90 meV, and the transmission window blue-shifted from 0.529 to 0.799 THz. The transmission peak frequency was found to have a linear relationship with the Fermi level. Similarly, the transmission phase and group delay under different Fermi levels was investigated. The positive group delay of the film reaches 7.026 ps, which provides a direction for new applications of terahertz, such as optical storage and slow optical devices.

We report anomalous dispersion properties of hybrid guided modes (HGMs) and their group velocity in a subwavelength uniaxial metamaterial waveguide with metal cladding. We derive exact dispersion relations and modal fields of HGMs by solving eigenvalue equation based on basic electromagnetic field theory in detail. Numerical results show that two fundamental HGMs and two types of high-order HGMs can be excited, and their exciting conditions are clarified. In addition, such HGMs can be engineered to belong to normal dispersion or anomalous dispersion. Importantly, the HGMs may be controlled to be forward or backward, and their group velocities may be very small in a certain frequency band. These properties make such metamaterial waveguides have many potential applications in integrated optics, information storage and biosensing.  相似文献

The plasmon-induced transparency (PIT) in ring-resonators coupled channel drop filter (CDF) systems is investigated theoretically and numerically in this paper. A coupled mode theory-based transfer matrix method (CMT-TMM) is introduced owning to the symmetric and evanescent coupling, which is confirmed by the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulation results. The drop waveguide provides the necessary optical feedback for the interference effect in realizing the PIT, and a new way for adjusting PIT effect in a fixed structure is also given. Finally, the phase and the group dispersion in the transparency window are discussed for investigating the slow light effect in our systems, and a group index of ~22 is obtained. The proposed plasmonic systems possess both the slow light and the dropping properties and may have potential and flexible applications in fundamental research of integrated plasmonic devices.  相似文献

Recently, metamaterial absorbers have received tremendous amount of interest because of their remarkable ability to manipulate the amplitude, phase, and polarization of light. However, most absorbers rely on the direct coupling of electric or magnetic field with external excitation, which lead to inevitable energy leakage to the surrounding environment and depress the quality factor of the structure. In this work, we investigate the multiband absorption property by exciting dark plasmonic modes in reflective symmetric and asymmetric metamaterials. Theoretically, the existence of dark plasmonic modes in asymmetric metamaterials is unambiguously illustrated by the improved eigen-mode theory. With the introduction of asymmetry, dark modes in metamaterials can be easily excited by normal incident plane wave. Moreover, we also directly excite the dark modes in symmetric absorber with oblique incidence. The dark modes splitting mechanism is also clarified with the excitation of designer surface plasmon. Dominated by magnetic dipole or higher-order multipole, these dark modes possess high quality factors (Q). Numerical results indicate that the metamaterial absorber maintains high absorbance within a wide-angle incidence (0~50°). The high Q asymmetric metamaterial absorber can be an excellent candidate for multiband plasmonic sensor.  相似文献

From first-principles computation, we reveal that optical bifacial transmission can be induced within an asymmetric metallic subwavelength structure. This phenomenon can be explained by a concrete picture in which the intensity of the driving forces for surface plasmon or charge wave is asymmetric for the two incident directions. Two distinguished different numerical methods, finite difference time domain (FDTD), and rigorous coupled wave analysis (RCWA) are utilized to verify that optical bifacial transmission can exist for linear plasmonic metamaterial. Previous results are also reviewed to confirm the physical meaning of optical bifacial transmission for a planar linear metamaterial. The incident light can provide direct driving forces for surface plasmon in one direction. While in the opposite direction, forces provided by the light diffraction are quite feeble. With the asymmetric driving forces, the excitation, propagation, and light-charge conversion of surface plasmon give the rise of bifacial charge-oscillation-induced transmission. In periodic a structure, the excitation of surface plasmon polariton can lead to the spoof vanish of such phenomenon. The transmissions for two incident directions get the same in macroscopic while the bifacial still exists in microscale.  相似文献

We demonstrated numerically that light can be totally absorbed by an ultrathin metamaterial film through coherently induced plasmon hybridization. Two fundamental modes, namely symmetrical and antisymmetrical modes, are observed in the metal–insulator–metal structure and attributed to the electric and magnetic resonance, respectively. Each kind of resonance is related to a distinct absorption peak for the corresponding coherent inputs. In particular, it is found that the antisymmetrical absorption is almost omnidirectional and suitable for divergent beams with arbitrary polarization and angle of incidence. To interpret the interaction of magnetic and electric fields with the structure, effective material parameters of the metamaterial are also retrieved, showing good agreement with the intuitive discussion. Furthermore, the general condition of coherent perfect absorption in a metamaterial thin film is given, which could be helpful for the design and understanding of such absorbers.  相似文献

Slow light devices with buffering capability play a critical role in all-optical signal processing. In this paper, multiple slow light phenomena are implemented based on plasmon-induced transparency (PIT) in our device. The device mainly consists of dual tooth cavities coupled with stub resonators, respectively. Temporal coupled-mode theory model illustrates that the triple PIT phenomena can be achieved based on different formation mechanisms. The simulation results calculated by the finite-difference time-domain method reveal that significant slow light response occurs at two wavelength regions. In addition, the parameters of structure have an important influence on PIT response and slow light characteristics. Moreover, the separate manipulation of wavelength, transmission and group index at transparency peak can be achieved in different slow light channels by adjusting the structural parameters. This plasmonic device is of great significance for the design of optical networks on chips.

In this paper, a tri-layer metamaterial composed of a split-disk structure array sandwiched with two layers of twisted sub-wavelength metal grating is proposed and investigated numerically in terahertz region. The numerical results exhibit that linear polarization conversion via diode-like asymmetric transmission for terahertz waves within ultra-broadband frequency range is achieved due to Fabry-Perot-like resonance. In our design, the conversion polarization transmission coefficient for normal incidence is greater than 90 % in the range of 0.23–1.17 THz, equivalent to 134.3 % relative bandwidth. The physical mechanism of the broadband linear polarization conversion effect is further illustrated by simulated electrical field distributions.

In this paper, we demonstrated a low-loss and high-transmission analogy of electromagnetically induced transparency based on all-dieletric metasurface. The metamaterial unit cell structure is composed of two mutually perpendicular silicon nanoscale bars. Under the joint effects of the neighboring meta-atoms’ coherent interaction and significant low absorption loss, the transmission and the Q-factor can reach up to 93 % and 139, respectively. Moreover, we use the coupled harmonic oscillator model to analyze the near field interaction between the two elements in the electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) metamaterial unit cell qualitatively and the effects of parameters on EIT. The figure-of-merit of 42 and the group delay of 0.65 ps are obtained. These characteristics make the metamaterial structure with potential to apply for ultrafast switches, sensor, and slow-light devices.  相似文献

A compact plasmonic coupled-resonator system, consisting of a stub resonator and baffles in the metal–insulator–metal waveguide, is numerically investigated with the finite element method. Simulations show that sharp and asymmetric response line-shapes can occur in the system. The asymmetric line-shapes in the transmission spectra depend on the relative positions of the resonant wavelengths between the single-stub resonator and the inner resonator constructed by the baffle and the stub resonator, while the other part of the transmission spectra (except the asymmetric part) maintains the spectral features of the structure constructed by the baffles. An analytic model and a relative phase analysis based on the scattering matrix theory are used to describe and explain this phenomenon. These sharp and asymmetric response line-shapes are important for improving the nano-plasmonic devices’ performances.  相似文献

Low-loss electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) and asymmetric Fano line shapes are investigated in a simple planar silicon dimer resonator. The EIT and Fano effects emerge due to near-field coupling of the modes supported by both the nanoparticles in a dimer structure. Different configurations of the dimer nanostructure are analyzed, which provide distinct EIT and Fano resonances. Furthermore, the tunability of EIT and Fano resonant modes are incorporated by changing the structural parameters. It is also found that the dimer resonator exhibits high Q factor and large electromagnetic field enhancement at Fano resonance and EIT window due to extremely low absorption loss. Such values and narrow resonances are supposed to be useful highly sensitive sensors and slow-light applications.  相似文献
