Abstract
The resonant mode characteristics of the nanoscale surface plasmon polaritons (SPP) waveguide filter with rectangle cavity are studied theoretically. By using the finite difference time domain method, both the band-stop- and band-pass-type rectangle SPP filters are analyzed. The results show that the whispering gallery mode (WGM) and the Fabry–Perot (FP) mode can be supported by the rectangle SPP resonator. Furthermore, both traveling-wave mode and standing-wave mode can be realized by the WGM, while only standing-wave mode can be introduced by the FP mode. The traveling-wave mode can only be realized by the square-shaped SPP resonator, and the traveling-wave mode is splitted into two standing-wave modes by transforming the cavity shape from square to rectangle. Also, the effects of the cavity shape, cavity size, and coupling gap size on the transmission spectra of the SPP resonators are analyzed in detail. This simple SPP waveguide filter is very promising for the high-density SPP waveguide integrations.
