The results show that the transmission properties can be influenced strongly by layer distance. We attribute the two types of resonant modes to surface plasmon resonance and the localised waveguide resonance. We find that the localised waveguide transmission peak redshifts and becomes broader with increasing layer distance D. We also describe and explain the splitting, shift, and degeneration of the surface plasmon resonant transmission peak theoretically. In addition, to clarify the physical mechanism of the transmission behaviours, we analyse the distributions of electric field and total energy for the three transmission peaks with distance D = 45 nm for the double-layer system. Light transporting behaviours are mostly concentrated in the region of the slits as well as the interspaces of the two layers, and for different resonant wavelengths the electric field and energy distributions are different. It is expected that the results obtained here will be helpful for designing subwavelength metallic grating devices.展开更多

The numerical analysis model for ISD and UAE was established and also was used to simulate the ring unit cell FSS transmission performance by the finite element and periodic moment methods. The double layer ring aperture FSS configuration designed was used as the numerical model. As a result of the numerical analysis, it is shown that both ISD and UAE produce insertion transmission loss (ITL) and insertion phase distortion (IPD) directly. Furthermore, ISD results in more loss of the amplitude of the transmitted signal for the FSS than UAE. It is significant for the designer of the multiplayer FSS to assign the fabricated error of the FSS dielectric layers. The UAE introduces the insertion phase variation badly.展开更多
