Extraordinary grating-coupled microwave transmission through a subwavelength annular aperture.
We studied coupling phenomena between surface plasmons and electromagnetic waves in the microwave spectrum using circular apertures surrounded by array of grooves.We first present experimental and theoretical results of enhanced microwave transmission though a subwavelength circular aperture with concentric periodic grooves around the surface plasmon resonance frequency. This is followed by tra...
متن کاملPlasmonic Structures with Extraordinary Transmission and Highly Directional Beaming Properties
We studied the grating–coupling phenomena between surface plasmons and electromagnetic waves in the microwave spectrum. We first present the experimental and theoretical results of an enhanced microwave transmission though a subwavelength circular annular aperture with and without metallic gratings. We demonstrate that a 145-fold enhancement factor could be obtained with a subwavelength circula...
متن کاملEnhanced light transmission through a single subwavelength aperture.
The optical transmission through a subwavelength aperture in a metal film is strongly enhanced when the incident light is resonant with surface plasmons at the corrugated metal surface surrounding the aperture. Conversely, the aperture acts as a novel probe of the surface plasmons, yielding useful insights for optimizing the transmission enhancement. For the optimal corrugation geometry, a set ...
متن کاملField enhancement in metallic subwavelength aperture arrays probed by erbium upconversion luminescence.
Upconversion luminescence from erbium ions placed in the near field of subwavelength aperture arrays is used to investigate field enhancement of incident near-infrared light in such nanostructures. We study field enhancement due to the excitation of both propagating and localized surface plasmon resonances in arrays of square and annular apertures in a Au film. The conversion of 1480 nm excitat...
متن کاملPolarization dependence of light transmission through individual nanoapertures in metal films
We present a systematic study of light transmission through individual nanoscale apertures (rectangular slits and circular holes) etched in a 300-nm-thick silver film. Transmission spectra were obtained as functions of aperture shape and size, as well as the wavelength and polarization state of the normally incident light beam. By varying the wavelength of the incident light in the 550–750 nm r...
