Abstract

A guided-mode resonance filter (GMRF) with nanosphere grating layer fabricated by a modified dip-coating method is designed and demonstrated through experiment. The influence of waveguide thickness, radius of nanosphere, incident angle and polarization characteristics on the spectral reflectance are investigated, and optimized structure parameters are obtained. Field distributions of the designed GMRF at resonance and non-resonance wavelength are simulated, and proved that GMR effect will generate when strong coupling occurs between the waveguide layer and the grating layer. In the end, GMRF with 260 nm diameter nanospheres grating layer is experimentally fabricated, neat hexagonal close row structure and a maximum reflectance of 82 % at around 402.3 nm wavelength are obtained.
