Mechanisms for extraordinary optical transmission through bull's eye structures.
We analyze both experimentally and theoretically the physical mechanisms that determine the optical transmission through deep sub-wavelength bull's eye structures (concentric annular grooves surrounding a circular hole). Our analysis focus on the transmission resonance as a function of the distance between the central hole and its nearest groove. We find that, for that resonance, each groove be...
متن کاملLoss mechanisms in mid-infrared extraordinary optical transmission gratings.
The optical properties of periodic arrays of subwavelength apertures in metal films on GaAs substrates are studied. Specifically, geometric and material losses for these plasmonic structures are characterized using angular dependent transmission, normal incidence reflection, and angular dependent diffraction experiments, in addition to a crossed-polarizer transmission experiment. The optical pr...
متن کاملTheory of extraordinary optical transmission through subwavelength hole arrays.
We present a fully three-dimensional theoretical study of the extraordinary transmission of light through subwavelength hole arrays in optically thick metal films. Good agreement is obtained with experimental data. An analytical minimal model is also developed, which conclusively shows that the enhancement of transmission is due to tunneling through surface plasmons formed on each metal-dielect...
متن کاملextraordinary transmission through subwavelength hole arrays
The recent history of the research and development around plasmon surface waves that was initiated by the work published in Nature in 1998 by Ebbesen et al. [1] looks like a ten-fold compressed version of studies initiated more than a century ago by Robert Wood with his discovery of anomalies in the efficiency of metallic diffraction gratings, now known as Wood’s anomalies [2]. In 1902, R. Wood...
متن کاملExtraordinary optical transmission for surface- plasmon-resonance-based sensing
In 1998, Ebbesen and co-workers demonstrated the surprising result that arrays of small holes in a metal show optical transmission resonances [1]. This result was surprising because Bethe's aperture theory predicts negligible transmission through a single small hole in a thin metal film. As a result the phenomenon was termed extraordinary optical transmission (EOT). Unfortunately, the term EOT ...
