Abstract-Plasmons in two-dimensional systems find applications in terahertz oscillators, detectors, filters, plasmonic crystals, etc. Numerous approaches to modeling plasmonic spectra exists, but little work has been done to compare results from theoretical calculations with each other, and so to understand their limitations. Using three different techniques (full-wave simulations, mode matching, and trasmission-line model), we analyse here a realistic structure comprising three coupled plasmonic resonators. While the results of all three models offer qualitatively similar results, revealing a rich spectrum of coupled modes, the values of the predicted resonant frequencies differ between the models. The best agreement is found between fullwave simulations and mode matching, both of which are based on rigorous solution of Maxwell's equations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
