Abstract

Filter elements based on metamaterial structure are one of the essential schemes for researching the miniaturization of spectral detection systems. The aim of this study is to meet the application requirements of different long-wave infrared signal frequency filtering and improve the detection efficiency of micro-filters. In this paper, a periodic micro-nano-cross-linked hole structure is designed, based on the surface plasmonic polariton resonance effect to realize the extraordinary optical transmission performance of 8 ~ 12 μm long-wave infrared. Based on the surface plasmonic polariton excitation mechanism of periodic micro-nano-structures, the tunable performance of the transmission spectra at five central wavelengths of 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 μm was achieved by changing the simulation period and the overall period of the model, and the optimal peak transmittance was 88.31% with a half-wave width of 1.31 ± 0.01 μm. The present study summarizes the tuning mode and rule of the micro-nano-cross-linked structure to realize the blue/redshift under the performance of the extraordinary optical transmission, which provides an important reference for the miniaturized structure design of infrared spectral detectors and tunable filtering research and is conducive to the application of broadband filtering spectral chips.
