Mie plasmon enhanced diffraction of light from nanoporous metal surfaces

Mie plasmon enhanced diffraction of light from nanoporous metal surfaces
The diffractive properties of gold films with a periodic lattice of sub-micron voids beneath the surface are investigated. It has been shown that nanoporous metal surfaces exhibit frequency-selective non-dispersive diffraction enhanced by Mie plasmons in nanovoids, which leads to absolute angular tolerance of the diffracted beam intensity that can be useful for a variety of applications covering angle-tolerant optical filters, deflectors, absorbers, and beam splitters. Diffraction spectra are measured and calculated to support these conclusions, showing good qualitative agreement.

Abstract

The diffractive properties of gold films with a periodic lattice of sub-micron voids beneath the surface are investigated. It has been shown that nanoporous metal surfaces exhibit frequency-selective non-dispersive diffraction enhanced by Mie plasmons in nanovoids, which leads to absolute angular tolerance of the diffracted beam intensity that can be useful for a variety of applications covering angle-tolerant optical filters, deflectors, absorbers, and beam splitters. Diffraction spectra are measured and calculated to support these conclusions, showing good qualitative agreement.
