Abstract

The invention discloses a metal nanowire surface plasma modulator based on grapheme two-dimension material. The metal nanowire surface plasma modulator based on grapheme two-dimension material includes placing a metal nanowire on the grapheme and triggering the surface plasma of the metal nanowire through a laser. The surface plasma of the metal nanowire interacts with the grapheme material through energy level transition in a transmission process. Fermi level of the grapheme is adjusted, so light absorption characteristic of the grapheme can be greatly changed. Due to increasing or reduction of absorption of surface plasma of the metal nanowire through the grapheme, modulation on surface plasma can be achieved. Due the fact that the grapheme has the advantages of being small in size (monatomic layer), high in carrier speed, adjustable in the Fermi level and the like, the metal nanowire surface plasma modulator based on grapheme two-dimension material expresses huge advantages in absorption and modulation of the surface plasma.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a micro-nano photonics element, in particular to a metal nanowire surface plasmon modulator based on graphene two-dimensional material. Background technique [0002] Due to the super-diffraction limit ability of surface plasmons, it shows great potential in the research field of micro-nanophotonics, and has attracted extensive attention of researchers in recent years. The ideal materials for surface plasmons are heavy metals, such as gold, silver and so on. However, it is difficult for such heavy metals to adjust their electron density. Therefore, it is very difficult to modulate surface plasmons, and there are few modulation schemes. Graphene materials, which have attracted widespread attention in recent years, have shown great application potential in light and plasmonic modulation due to their fast carrier velocity and easy adjustment of Fermi level. Contents of the invention [0003] The object of the present invention ...
