Abstract
Dielectric nanostructures reinforcing light-matter interactions by manipulating geometric parameters have a sound momentum in optoelectronic applications. Here, we construct and numerically demonstrate a new platform with multiple dipolar resonant behaviors or impressive switching operation and optical sensing with a high sensitivity and figure of merit (FOM) via the graphene-silicon combined metamaterials. Ultra-sharp resonances are excited by introducing broken symmetry in such all-dielectric metamaterials (ADMs) consisting of two silicon trapezoidal bodies on a silica substrate. By analyzing the distributions of the electromagnetic fields and current densities, we find that two types of multipole modes have been excited to support multiple ultra-narrowband resonances in the near-infrared range. The influence of geometers, such as period, thickness, asymmetry parameters, and polarization angle of the incident light, has also been studied. In addition, by adjusting the Fermi levels of graphene, we realize a 95% amplitude modulation efficiency, which manifests perfect capacity for an optical switch. According to the calculated results, the highest sensitivity can reach 447.5 nm/RIU and a large FOM is also up to 1173 RIU−1. This platform not only introduces new insight onto the achievement of high-quality ultra-sharp resonant responses but also offers a distinct possibility for the further development of high-quality related applications in optical sensors, notch filtering, strong light-matter interactions including the nonlinear optics, and multispectral optoelectronics.
