Surface plasmon-cavity hybrid state and its graphene modulation at THz frequencies.

ABSTRACT: Fabry-Pérot (F-P) cavity and metal hole array are classic photonic devices. Integrating F-P cavity with holey metal typically enhances interfacial reflection and dampens wave transmission. In this work, a hybrid bound surface state is found within rectangular metal holes on a silicon substrate by merging an extraordinary optical transmission (EOT) mode and a high-order F-P cavity mode both spatially and spectrally. Transmission, Q-factor, and bandwidth can be enhanced significantly with respect to the classical EOT and F-P interference by simply sweeping the cavity length. This state can provide EOT properties and ten times broader EOT bandwidth well below the effective plasma frequency of the periodic metal holes, where the metal holes typically show evanescent properties and do not suppo
