摘要

We propose a novel plasmonic nanostructure composed of a silver (Ag) nanocube array coated on an Ag film perforated with a cubic nanohole array, and theoretically study its optical properties by the finite-difference time-domain method. Double greatly enhanced optical transmission bands in the visible and near-infrared regions are achieved via strong plasmon resonance coupling effects of the nanohole and nanocube arrays. The double-spectral enhanced optical transmission behaviors can be efficiently tailored by varying the widths, periods and heights of nanocubes and cubic nanoholes. The proposed structure may provide potential applications in deep subwavelength optoelectronic devices, including highly integrated light input and output components, sensors and plasmonic filters.
