It is found that the transmission features can be regulated by the cavity width and coupling distance. Electromagnetically induced transparency(EIT)-like transmission can be excited by adding an identical resonator on the pre-existing structure. Combining the foregoing theoretical analysis with coupled mode theory(CMT), the formation process of the EIT-like transmission was detailedly analyzed. EIT-like transmission can also be excited in plasmonic structure with two detuned resonators. By altering the structure parameters, the transparency window can be purposefully modulated. With the merits of compact structure and simplicity in fabrication, the proposed structures may have a broad prospect of applications in highly integrated optical circuits.展开更多

The LPWG filter, a periodic rectangle-corrugated grating structure, was easily fabricated with soft-lithography technique. At a temperature range from 19~C to 70~C, the fabricated LPWG filter element demonstrated a high temperature sensitivity of about 6.5 nm/~C and a wide linear tunable temperature range of 51℃, so that it can be used as a precise thermometer. Our results are useful for the designs of LPWG filters for the implementation of a wide range of thermo-optic functions.展开更多

The device consists of metal gate, anU-refleetlon coatings, liquid crystal and mirror. By changing the refractive index of liquid crystal in the interface between the metal gate and the mirror, the phase difference between two beams with orthogonal polarization is varied and a continuous phase sliift is achieved. The phase shift of the device is calculated by using the finite difference time domain （FDTD） method, and the transmittance and reflectance are calculated by using the rigorous coupled wave analysis （RCWA） method. The results reveal that the structure can realize continuously tunable phase shift for THz wave at 1 THz.展开更多
