Abstract

We propose a dielectric corrugated structure surrounded by two monolayer graphene and find that the structure supports bound states in the continuum (BIC). By introducing a phase difference between the upper and lower surface of dielectric grating, the symmetry of the structure is broken, and the BIC turns into quasi-BIC. In addition, we find that the Fermi energy of graphene strongly affect the spectral line. By controlling phase difference and Fermi energy of graphene, the ultrahigh Q-factor can be achieved. Finally, introducing a sensing medium at the incident side, the high performance sensor is realized.
