Metallic Ellipsoidal Array–Film for Enhancing Transmission via Plasmonic Coupling

摘要

In this paper, a novel metal structure that integrates double continuous Au films and double aligned gold (Au) non-close-packed ellipsoidal nanoparticle arrays is proposed. The optical features of this structure are simulated by using the three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain (3D-FDTD) method. Bimodal plasmonic resonances with the highest transmission up to 74% and 66% (corresponding to the short and long-wavelength, respectively) are achieved. This proposed structure with sub-wavelength size may provide fascinating applications in optoelectronic devices such as transparent conductors and conductive devices, slow light devices, highly sensitive sensors.
