Compact Color Filter and Polarizer of Bilayer Metallic Nanowire Grating Based on Surface Plasmon Resonances
نویسندگان
چکیده
Surface plasmon resonances on bilayer aluminum nanowire gratings are studied in both theory and experiment. It is found that there are two kinds of surface plasmon on the bilayer metallic gating: longitudinal aluminum/dielectric/aluminum slit and lateral aluminum/dielectric interface waveguide mode. The surface plasmon waveguide mode resonance in the slits makes the grating act as a transverse magnetic (TM)-passing polarizer. With the lateral waveguide mode resonance, certain wavelengths of the incident TM light are translated to aluminum/air or aluminum/substrate waveguide light, and the grating acts as a color filter. With both resonances, the bilayer nanowire grating can be a compact-integrated polarizer and color filter.

Effect of finite metallic grating size on Rayleigh anomaly-surface plasmon polariton resonances.
Rayleigh anomalies (RAs) and surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) on subwavelength metallic gratings play pivotal roles in many interesting phenomena such as extraordinary optical transmission. In this work, we present a theoretical analysis of the effect of finite metallic grating size on RA-SPP resonances based on the combination of rigorous coupled wave analysis and finite aperture diffraction....
متن کاملAdjustable Plasmonic Bandgap in One-Dimensional Nanograting Based on Localized and Propagating Surface Plasmons
Compared to the long history of plasmonic gratings, there are only a few studies regarding the bandgap in the propagation of plasmonic surface waves. Considering the previous studies on interpretation of plasmonic bandgap formation, we discuss this phenomenon using the effect of both surface plasmon polariton (SPP) and localized surface plasmon (LSP) for our fabricated one-dimensional metallic-...
متن کاملUnderstanding fractional-order surface plasmons.
We show experimentally that diffraction-induced surface plasmon excitation can mimic enhanced transmission and cause a highly sensitive modulation by the coherent interference between zero-order and reflected first-order diffraction in select regions of the terahertz spectrum. Based on the study of a one-dimensional metallic grating, we obtain the physical mechanisms of the fractional-order sur...
متن کاملBroadband on-chip near-infrared spectroscopy based on a plasmonic grating filter array.
We demonstrate an ultra-compact, broadband on-chip near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy system based on a narrow-band plasmonic filter array. The entire filter array, consisting of 28 individual subwavelength metallic gratings, was monolithically integrated in a thin gold film on a quartz substrate, covering a 270 nm spectra from 1510 nm to 1780 nm. In order to achieve a high spectral resolution, e...
