A numerical and theoretical study is presented on the realization of tunable plasmon-induced transparency (PIT) phenomenon in the three-dimensional patterned graphene nanostrips. The simulation results reveal that the PIT effect is generated due to the excitation of dark mode which can be considered a dipole. The three-level plasmonic system is employed to explain the physical mechanism of the PIT effect. Different from previous reported form (dipole-quadrupole coupling), the proposed is attributed to the dipole-dipole coupling. The PIT effect can be tuned by changing the coupling length between bright and dark mode as well as the Fermi energy of graphene. Our studies provide guidance for fabricating ultra-compact devices in practical application. 相似文献
We present the strength modulation and frequency tuning of Fano resonance by employing a graphene nanodimer formed by two coplanar perpendicular nanostrips with different dimensions. The Fano resonance is induced by destructive interference between the bright dipole mode of a short nanostrip and the dark quadrupole mode of a long nanostrip. The strength, line width, and resonance frequency of the Fano resonance can be actively modulated by changing the spatial separation of those two graphene nanostrips and the Fermi energy of the graphene nanodimer, respectively, without re-fabricating the nanostructures. The tuning of the strength and resonance frequency can be attributed to the coupling strength and optical properties of graphene, respectively. Importantly, a figure of merit value as high as 39 is achieved in the proposed nanostructures. Our results may provide potential applications in optical switching and bio-chemical sensing. 相似文献
In this paper, on the basis of metamaterial, a simply single-layer and tunable reflective polarization converter has been numerically investigated, which is composed of vanadium dioxide film (VO2) component combined with two-corner-cut square patch cut by a slit and reflective ground layer. Calculated results obtained by the CST Microwave Studio show that in the frequency of 2.22–5.42 THz, high polarization conversion efficiency (polarization conversion ratio (PCR) above 90%) can be normally achieved at the temperature about 25 °C for both the linearly and circularly polarized wave incidence. At the same time, the cross-polarization converter can be analyzed and obtained from the view on qualitative variable of polarization azimuth angle (θ) and ellipticity (η). Moreover, a tunable polarization conversion property can be realized by the designed device with vanadium dioxide utilizing changing different conductivities. Even so, to be demonstrated, the physical mechanism of the merits of controllability and uniqueness has been discussed by the distributions of current densities and E-field map, respectively. According to the prior results, the designed metamaterial could be applied in the area of temperature-controlled sensing, THz wireless communication, tunable polarized devices.
