Metallically coated dielectric rectangle resonator
Abstract:
The double transfer matrix method (DTMM) is proposed for calculating the eigenvalues of the resonant mode of a metallically coated dielectric rectangle resonator. Two-dimensional electromagnetic analyses are performed to investigate the optical influences induced by planar structure parameters. The results show that there theoretically exists a highest Q-factor resonance for both TE and TM modes at a certain length-width ratio with fixed resonant wavelength and resonator area. Due to the influence of surface plasma polaritons (SPPs) trapped at the corners of the resonator which is not considered in DTMM, the TM mode resonances are deformed and deviate severely from that of the analytical model. The geometric deformation on the resonator is introduced by replacing the four right angles with circular boundaries, and the SPP accompanied mode behaviors are corrected to the standing waves.
