Cross-polarized surface lattice resonances in a rectangular lattice plasmonic metasurface

Open Access Open Access

Abstract

Multiresonant metasurfaces could enable many applications in filtering, sensing, and nonlinear optics. However, developing a metasurface with more than one high-quality-factor or high-Q resonance at designated resonant wavelengths is challenging. Here, we experimentally demonstrate a plasmonic metasurface exhibiting different, narrow surface lattice resonances by exploiting the polarization degree of freedom where different lattice modes propagate along different dimensions of the lattice. The surface consists of aluminum nanostructures in a rectangular periodic lattice. The resulting surface lattice resonances were measured around 640 nm and 1160 nm with Q factors of ∼50 and ∼800, respectively. The latter is a record-high plasmonic Q factor within the near-infrared type-II window. Such metasurfaces could benefit such applications as frequency conversion and all-optical switching.

Normally incident light polarized (a) along the $x$-axis excites an SLR along the periodicity $P_{y}$ (vertical, red), (b) along the $y$-axis excites an SLR along the periodicity $P_{x}$ (horizontal, green), and (c) diagonally simultaneously excites SLRs along both directions. The yellow ring encircling each V-shaped nanostructure represents the LSPRs. (d) Focused-ion beam micrograph of fabricated metasurface.
