Abstract
Dual plasmon-induced transparency (PIT) and plasmon-induced absorption (PIA) are simultaneously achieved in an integrated metamaterial composed of single layer of graphene. Electric field distribution and coupled mode theory (CMT) are used to demonstrate the physical mechanism of dual PIT and PIA, and the theoretical result of CMT is highly consistent with the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method simulation result. Further research shows that both the dual PIT and PIA phenomenon can be effectively modulated by the Fermi level, the carrier mobility of the graphene and the refractive index of the surrounding environment. It is meaningful that the absorption of the dual PIA spectrum can be abruptly increased to 93.5% when the carrier mobility of graphene is 0.8m2/Vs. In addition, the group index can be as high as 328. Thus, our work can pave new way for developing excellent slow-light and light absorption functional devices.Keywords
