Gratings consisting of resonant elements are the most attractive target in this area, as they emit enhanced radiation. Despite the rapid progress in nanotechnology, statistical errors arise during the manufacturing of metasurfaces and can lead to significant changes in radiation properties. In this work, we theoretically analyze the resonant Smith–Purcell radiation from a disordered array of dimers of interacting sub-wavelength particles. Two sources of statistical errors are considered: disorder in the period of the grating and misalignment of particles within each dimer. We show that the spectral characteristics of the Smith–Purcell radiation strongly depend on the ratio of the Smith–Purcell radiation harmonic and resonant frequencies. The disorder can lead to a shift in the frequency at which the most intense radiation is emitted, depending on which process dominates – the coherent one or the resonant one. In general, our results show that resonant Smith–Purcell radiation, when resonant frequency of close to one of the Smith–Purcell radiation harmonics, is much more robust than conventional Smith–Purcell radiation. Our theory helps to estimate the accuracy with which it is necessary to produce gratings for purposes of photonics and nanoelectronics, and is also important for designing and interpreting the experiments on Smith–Purcell radiation from 2D flat structures, including metasurfaces, flat photonic and plasmonic crystals, which are actively studied in optics today.</p>","PeriodicalId":604,"journal":{"name":"JETP Letters","volume":"124 1","pages":"7 - 14"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2026-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148807415","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
