Sumario: | In this paper, we numerically and theoretically study the tunable plasmonically induced transparency (PIT) effect based on the graphene metasurface structure consisting of a graphene cut wire (CW) resonator and double split-ring resonators (SRRs) in the middle infrared region (MIR). Both the theoretical calculations according to the coupled harmonic oscillator model and simulation results indicate that the realization of the PIT effect significantly depends on the coupling distance and the coupling strength between the CW resonator and SRRs. In addition, the geometrical parameters of the CW resonator and the number of the graphene layers can alter the optical response of the graphene structure. Particularly, compared with the metal-based metamaterial, the PIT effect realized in the proposed metasurface can be flexibly modulated without adding other actively controlled materials and reconstructing the structure by taking advantage of the tunable complex surface conductivity of the graphene. These results could find significant applications in ultrafast variable optical attenuators, sensors and slow light devices. |
