High-efficiency and polarization-independent focused vortex beam generators and detectors are realized and demonstrated with all dielectric metasurfaces in near-infrared regime.
We propose a novel combination of a radiation field model and the transfer matrix method (TMM) to demonstrate plasmon-induced transparency (PIT) in bright-dark mode waveguide structures. This radiation field model is more effective and convenient for describing direct coupling in bright-dark mode resonators, and is promoted to describe transmission spectra and scattering parameters quantitatively in infinite element structures by combining it with the TMM. We verify the correctness of this novel combined method through numerical simulation of the metal-dielectric-metal (MDM) waveguide side-coupled with typical bright-dark mode, H-shaped resonators; the large group index can be achieved in these periodic H-shaped resonators. These results may provide a guideline for the control of light in highly integrated optical circuits.
We investigate electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT)-like effect in a metal-dielectric-metal (MDM) waveguide coupled to a single multimode stub resonator. Adjusting the geometrical parameters of the stub resonator, we can realize single or double plasmon-induced transparency (PIT) windows in the plasmonic structure. Moreover, the consistency between analytical results and finite difference time domain (FDTD) simulations reveals that the PIT results from the destructive interference between resonance modes in the stub resonator. Compared with previous EIT-like scheme based on MDM waveguide, the plasmonic system takes the advantages of easy fabrication and compactness. The results may open up avenues for the control of light in highly integrated optical circuits.
We demonstrate the realization of plasmonic analog of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in a system composing of two stub resonators side-coupled to metal-dielectric-metal (MDM) waveguide. Based on the coupled mode theory (CMT) and Fabry-Perot (FP) model, respectively, the formation and evolution mechanisms of plasmon-induced transparency by direct and indirect couplings are exactly analyzed. For the direct coupling between the two stub resonators, the FWHM and group index of transparent window to the inter-space are more sensitive than to the width of one cut, and the high group index of up to 60 can be achieved. For the indirect coupling, the formation of transparency window is determined by the resonance detuning, but the evolution of transparency is mainly attributed to the change of coupling distance. The consistence between the analytical solution and finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulations verifies the feasibility of the plasmon-induced transparency system. It is also interesting to notice that the scheme is easy to be fabricated and may pave the way to highly integrated optical circuits.
We investigate a classic analog of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in a metal-dielectric-metal (MDM) bus waveguide coupled to two stub resonators. A uniform theoretical model, for both direct and indirect couplings between the two stubs, is established to study spectral features in the plasmonic stub waveguide, and the theoretical results agree well with the finite difference time domain simulations. Adjusting phase difference and coupling strength of the interaction, one can realize the EIT-like phenomena and achieve the required slow light effect. The theoretical results may provide a guideline for the control of light in highly integrated optical circuits.
