Resonant plasmonic effects in periodic graphene antidot arrays

چکیده
We show that a graphene sheet perforated with microor nano-size antidots have prominent absorption resonances in the microwave and terahertz regions. These resonances correspond to surface plasmons of a continuous sheet “perturbed” by a lattice. They are excited in different diffraction orders, in contrast to cavity surface plasmon modes existing in disconnected graphene structures. The resonant absorption by the antidot array can essentially exceed the absorption by a continuous graphene sheet, even for high antidot diameter-to-period aspect ratios. Surface plasmonenhanced absorption and suppressed transmission is more efficient for higher relaxation times of the charge carriers.

Electronically tunable extraordinary optical transmission in graphene plasmonic ribbons coupled to subwavelength metallic slit arrays
Subwavelength metallic slit arrays have been shown to exhibit extraordinary optical transmission, whereby tunnelling surface plasmonic waves constructively interfere to create large forward light propagation. The intricate balancing needed for this interference to occur allows for resonant transmission to be highly sensitive to changes in the environment. Here we demonstrate that extraordinary ...
متن کاملBand structures and transport properties of zigzag graphene nanoribbons with antidot arrays.
We study the band and transport features of zigzag graphene nanoribbon with an antidot lattice. It is found that an antidot lattice could turn semi-metal graphene into a semiconductor. The size of the band gap can be tuned by the position of the antidots and the distance D between the two nearest antidots. For a finite superlattice with N antidots and a large D, a group of (N - 1) splitting res...
متن کاملEdge-reflection phase directed plasmonic resonances on graphene nano-structures.
The phase of graphene plasmon upon edge-reflection plays a crucial role on determining the spectral properties of graphene structures. In this article, by using the full-wave simulation, we demonstrate that the mid-infrared graphene plasmons are nearly totally reflected at the boundary together with a phase jump of approximately 0.27π, regardless of the environments surrounding it. Appling this...
متن کاملMagnetoconductance oscillations in graphene antidot arrays
Epitaxial graphene films have been formed on the C-face of semi-insulating 4H-SiC substrates by a high temperature sublimation process. Nanoscale square antidot arrays have been fabricated on these graphene films. At low temperatures, magnetoconductance in these films exhibits pronounced Aharonov–Bohm oscillations with the period corresponding to magnetic flux quanta added to the area of a sing...
