Abstract
A subwavelength intersection structure with wavelength filtering functionality is proposed by using an open loop which consists of four slot cavities and four metal-insulator-metal (MIM) drop waveguides. The slot cavities are used as the resonators while the MIM waveguides serve as the input/output ports. The SPPs propagations and the transmission wavelengths in two pairs of matched input/output ports are immune to each other, which satisfy the intersection characters. The results based on finite difference time domain (FDTD) method demonstrate that high transmittance for the expected output port and high isolation for other ports have been achieved. Specifically, the transmittance and isolation is larger than 0.64 and 14 dB, respectively. In addition, a transmission peak, whose wavelength can be modulated by adjusting the length of the slot cavities, is available for the output port. Such a device can find applications in various optical systems, such as the wavelength filtering area and the optical intersection area.
