Abstract

could be achieved even when the two resonant structures were approximately a wavelength apart. These findings may open new avenues for realizing high-Q EIT, which is useful for photonic devices and biosensing applications. The proposed method can be extended to microwaves and terahertz waves.

Analogue of electromagnetically induced transparency with high Q factor in Metal-dielectric metamaterials

Bingxin Han, Zhi Hong

We investigated numerically the electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) behavior with the maximum Q factor is up to 28000 in a metal-dielectric metamaterial. It composed of two layers, a metallic strip as bright mode stacked above a dielectric rod as another bright mode. The coherent coupling between the broad electric dipole induced by the metal strip and the narrow toroidal dipole induced by the dielectric rod leads to the destructive interference, then introduces a transparency window. Interestingly, the EIT window could be effectively influenced by varying parameters of the two layers and the thickness of middle spacer. This process can be explained by using two-particle model. Furthermore, the radiation loss is greatly suppressed within the EIT windows and the slow light effect is improved a lot. These excellent properties also provide an effective platform for the filters and sensitive chemical and biological sensors in the optical range.

Plasmonic metamaterial for electromagnetically induced transparency analogue and ultra-high figure of merit sensor

Dong Wu, Yumin Liu, Li Yu +7 more

In this work, using finite-difference time-domain method, we propose and numerically demonstrate a novel way to achieve electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) phenomenon in the reflection spectrum by stacking two different types of coupling effect among different elements of the designed metamaterial. Compared with the conventional EIT-like analogues coming from only one type of coupling effect between bright and dark meta-atoms on the same plane, to our knowledge the novel approach is the first to realize the optically active and precise control of the wavelength position of EIT-like phenomenon using optical metamaterials. An on-to-off dynamic control of the EIT-like phenomenon also can be achieved by changing the refractive index of the dielectric substrate via adjusting an optical pump pulse. Furthermore, in near infrared region, the metamaterial structure can be operated as an ultra-high resolution refractive index sensor with an ultra-high figure of merit (FOM) reaching 3200, which remarkably improve the FOM value of plasmonic refractive index sensors. The novel approach realizing EIT-like spectral shape with easy adjustment to the working wavelengths will open up new avenues for future research and practical application of active plasmonic switch, ultra-high resolution sensors and active slow-light devices.

We show experimentally an all-optical analogue to electromagnetically induced transparency due to coherent interference between two coupled resonators. We measured an EIT-like resonance mode with quality factor of 11,800 using silicon ring resonators.

The metamaterial analogue of electromagnetically induced transparency by dual-mode excitation of a symmetric resonator

Jian Shao, Jie Li, Jia-Qi Li +4 more

Electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) is obtained in a symmetric U-shaped metamaterial, which is attributed to the simultaneously excited dual modes in a single resonator under lateral incidence. A large group index accompanied with a sharp EIT-like transparency window offers potential applications for slowing down light and sensing.
