Abstract
In this study, Γ-shaped rectangular resonators, which are created in a metal insulator metal (MIM) structure, have been studied analytically and numerically. The metal is silver and rectangular resonators are filled by Si and the peak of transparency profile is tuned in the communication band with proper geometrical parameters. By employing 2-D finite difference time domain method (FDTD), simulations show a plasmonic induced transparency (PIT) window in the transmission diagram. The PIT is created by instructive and destructive interference between bright and dark resonator modes. The presented structure demonstrates tunable transparency window by variation of symmetry parameter, s. The maximum group velocity is obtained 0.1 ps in communication band corresponded to 30 μm traveling of light in the vacuum which is comparable to previous articles. The proposed structure may have potential applications in optical memory and delay blocks in designing integrated optical circuits.
期刊介绍:
Plasmonics is an international forum for the publication of peer-reviewed leading-edge original articles that both advance and report our knowledge base and practice of the interactions of free-metal electrons, Plasmons.
Topics covered include notable advances in the theory, Physics, and applications of surface plasmons in metals, to the rapidly emerging areas of nanotechnology, biophotonics, sensing, biochemistry and medicine. Topics, including the theory, synthesis and optical properties of noble metal nanostructures, patterned surfaces or materials, continuous or grated surfaces, devices, or wires for their multifarious applications are particularly welcome. Typical applications might include but are not limited to, surface enhanced spectroscopic properties, such as Raman scattering or fluorescence, as well developments in techniques such as surface plasmon resonance and near-field scanning optical microscopy.
