Abstract

Gold nanohole arrays, hybrid metal/dielectric metasurfaces composed of periodically arranged air holes in a thick gold film, exhibit versatile support for both localized and propagating surface plasmons. Leveraging their capabilities, particularly in surface plasmon resonance-oriented applications, demands precise optical tuning. In this study, a customized particle swarm optimization algorithm, implemented in Ansys Lumerical FDTD, was employed to optically tune gold nanohole arrays treated as bidimensional gratings following the Bragg condition. Both square and triangular array dispositions were considered. Convergence and evolution of the particle swarm optimization algorithm were studied, and a mathematical model was developed to interpret its outcomes.
