Surface plasmons supported by various metallic nanostructures have given rise to several significant breakthroughs in the field of integrated photonic devices due to its ability to effectively confine and enhance optical field in subwavelength volume. In particular, the demand to actively control optical responses of plasmonic systems becomes urgent for the miniaturization of signal processing devices, surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates and biochemical sensors. In this paper, we systematically investigate the plasmon modes as well as their interaction in a layered nanostructure composed of a periodically-arranged radiative nanoring and a metallic ground plane, as well as a thin insulating spacer. A tunable transparent peak on the background of the broadband plasmon resonance emerges in the reflection spectrum as changing the periodicity of nanoparticle array, a plasmonic analogue of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT). Owing to the structural symmetry of the rings, we demonstrate a new scheme of controlling the interference between localized and delocalized plasmons by means of incident polarization and believe that the proposed metasurface may find applications in optical switching if the polarization-controlled components are introduced.

Induced Transparency

Control over surface plasmons (SPs) is essential in a variety of cutting-edge applications, such as highly integrated photonic signal processing systems, deep-subwavelength lasing, high-resolution imaging, and ultrasensitive biomedical detection. Recently, asymmetric excitation of SPs has attracted enormous interest. In free space, the analog of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in metamaterials has been widely investigated to uniquely manipulate the electromagnetic waves. In the near field, we show that the dark mode coupling mechanism of the classical EIT effect enables an exotic and straightforward excitation of SPs in a metasurface system. This leads to not only resonant excitation of asymmetric SPs but also controllable exotic SP focusing by the use of the Huygens-Fresnel principle. Our experimental findings manifest the potential of developing plasmonic metadevices with unique functionalities.

Abstract We reported an analog of electromagnetically induced transparency (A-EIT) featured by double transparent peaks in the spectrum. The A-EIT is realized by double-layered metasurface which consists of spoof localized surface plasmons (S-LSP) and cut-wire (CW)-square rings (SR) hybrid. Electric and magnetic S-LSP are excited as bright and dark modes respectively then couple with resonant modes of CW and SR simultaneously to achieve multiple A-EIT. Two bright modes of the electric S-LSP and SR are excited by external electric field directly that produce a bright-bright mode A-EIT. Moreover, the magnetic S-LSP, which cannot be excited by external field directly, is excited through near field coupling from CW, inducing another bright-dark mode A-EIT. Theoretical analysis with corresponding experiment in microwave band are introduced for better insights into physical essence of the double-peaks A-EIT.
