Abstract

We present a design for a highly efficient and omnidirectional color-selective filter for the visible spectrum, based on a Fabry–Perot metal–dielectric–metal nanoresonator. The filter can have the same color transmitted in a range of incident angles from 0° up to 60° for TM polarization. The dielectrics used for each color filter are carefully chosen so that the angle-insensitive resonance conditions are satisfied while transmission values from 44.3% to 78.36% are achieved. We calculated the dielectric thickness for each filter and analyzed the optimal Ag thickness for maximum transmission. The proposed filters have a simple multilayer structure and do not require complex lithographic fabrication processes.
