We present both theoretical and experimental investigation on significantly enhanced transmission through(Ag/Au) double-layered metallic aperture arrays with sub-skin-depth Ag film due to the coupling role of a surface plasmon polariton at the Ag/Au interface by evanescent waves.The results indicate that the enhanced transmittance is highly dependent on the Ag film thickness.When the Ag film thickness increases,the peak transmittance firstly increases and then decreases.Moreover,other metal material properties are also discussed.The highest peak transmittance is obtained when the Ag film thickness is 4 nm.The finite-difference time-domain simulations agree well with the experimental results.This finding provides an effective way to control the enhanced transmission for double-layered metallic aperture arrays,which has potential applications in designing a high-performance plasmonic thermal emitter.
We present both theoretical and experimental investigation on significantly enhanced transmission through (Ag / Au) double-layered metallic aperture arrays with sub-skin-depth Ag film due to the coupling role of a plasmon polariton at the Ag / Au interface by evanescent waves The results indicate that the enhanced transmittance is highly dependent on the Ag film thickness. The peak transmittance first increases and then decreases. More than other metal material properties are also discussed. Peak transmittance is obtained when the Ag film thickness is 4 nm. The finite-difference time-domain simulations agree well with the experimental results. This finding provides an effective way to control the enhanced transmission for double-layered metallic aperture arrays, which has potential applications in designing a high -performance plasmonic thermal emitter.
