Abstract
One composite plasmonic slab with a broad bandgap (40%) is experimentally and numerically demonstrated in the terahertz (THz) region. The composite slab consists of double-layer metallic gratings and a dielectric film, which supports two resonant modes. Electric field vectors and charge distributions proved that the low-frequency resonant mode originates from the symmetric plasmonic mode, while the high-frequency resonant mode is induced by the hybrid mode of plasmonic and dielectric modes. Compared with the double-layer metallic grating, the inserted dielectric film significantly enhances the transmission of the transverse magnetic (TM) waves and induces Fano resonances. The near-field coupling between metal gratings and dielectric film can be manipulated by changing the thickness and the refractive index of dielectric films. We further demonstrated that the plasmonic bandgap can be manipulated by tuning the grating width. These results suggest that this composite plasmonic slab is promising in terahertz integrated components development such as a filter, polarizer, or sensor.
