We present measurements of transmission of infrared radiation through double-layer metallic grating structures. Each metal layer contains an array of subwavelength slits and supports transmission resonance in the absence of the other layer. The two metal layers are fabricated in close proximity to allow coupling of the evanescent field on individual layers. The transmission of the double layer is found to be surprisingly large at particular wavelengths, even when no direct line of sight exists through the structure as a result of the lateral shifts between the two layers. We perform numerical simulations using rigorous coupled wave analysis to explain the strong dependence of the peak transmission on the lateral shift between the metal layers.

Layer transfer via ion-cut has been developed for GaN to fabricate multiple templates from a high-quality GaN wafer without compromising the crystallinity. Here, we report on the successful fabrication of 4-in. layer-transferred GaN on sapphire. A high quality epitaxial layer is also successfully grown despite the structural degradation in the transferred layer by hydrogen implantation. Fully packaged vertical light-emitting diodes grown on the template exhibit the peak external quantum efficiency of 48.6% and optical output power of 1.8 W at 220 A/cm2, suggesting that the template could serve as a low-cost substrate for high-performance nitride devices.
