Abstract

We present a monolayer patterned black phosphorus (BP) metamaterial for generating a tunable dual plasmon-induced transparency (PIT). We have derived the expression for the theoretical transmittance by introducing the coupled mode theory (CMT), and the calculated results of the expression highly overlap with the simulation results. The quarterly frequency synchronous switch with two different operating bands is designed by the carrier density and scattering rate on the dual PIT modulation effect. Two parameters were selected as important markers to show the performance of the optical switch: the modulation depth (MD) and the insertion loss (IL). The theoretical analysis of this structure shows that the higher modulation depth (${5.45}\;{\rm dB \lt MD \lt 12.06}\;{\rm dB}$) and lower insertion loss (${0.60}\;{\rm dB \lt IL}\;{\rm \lt 0.22}\;{\rm dB}$) of these switches are of good application. In addition, we found the slow light properties of the structure were excellent with a group index of up to 219. This work provides a theoretical basis to prepare multifrequency optical switch and optical buffer devices.
