Strong coupling of the guided modes with BIC generation in graphene-based one-dimensional dielectric gratings

Here we have investigated the strong coupling of the guided modes with different orders in graphene-based onedimensional (1D) dielectric grating structures in the visible wavelengths. We found that the guided mode resonances (GMR) with different orders can strongly couple with each other under the oblique incidence of light. Absorption spectral response exhibits a distinct spectral anti-crossing with the Rabi splitting up to 59.8 meV. Simulation results further show that the strong coupling of GMR modes enables the bound state in the continuum (BIC) in this coupled system, which can be flexibly modulated by adjusting structural parameters. The proposed hybrid grating structures will benefit the applications in on-chip optical filtering, sensing, and optoelectronic detection.
