We theoretically investigate an controlled unidirectional reflectionlessness and near perfect absorption by applying external voltage in an electro-optical plasmonic waveguide system based on near-field coupling between two resonators. The system consists of two resonators side coupled to a metal-dielectric-metal plasmonic waveguide. Based on the numerical simulation, when external voltage is U = 7.4 V, the reflections for forward and backward directions are close to 0 and 0.82 at frequency 144.18 THz, while the reflections for forward and backward directions are close to 0.81 and 0 at frequency 150.86 THz when external voltage is U = 1.5 V. And the high absorption for forward (backward) direction is ∼0.97 (∼0.99) at frequency 144.18 THz (150.86 THz).
