Plasma Response of a Metallic “Grating” Metasurface on a Substrate
摘要
The transmission of electromagnetic radiation through a silicon substrate with a square metallic grid deposited on one side has been studied experimentally. It has been established that the electrodynamic response of the structure is equivalent to the excitation of a transverse electromagnetic plasma mode in it with the plasma frequency determined by the geometric parameters of the grating, as well as by the thickness and relative permittivity of the substrate. A theoretical model has been developed to qualitatively describe the experimental results obtained.
