Abstract

In this paper, a high-performance metamaterial sensor with a square split-ring resonator and a double circular split-ring resonator is proposed, which can simultaneously excite broad-band and narrow-band electromagnetically induced transparency-like (EIT-like) effects in the terahertz band. First, the mechanisms of the dual-band EIT-like effects have been revealed by the analyses of the transmission spectra and surface current distributions in the metamaterial. Then, the influences of structural parameters on the dual-band EIT-like are discussed further. Finally, the metamaterial is very sensitive to the change of the refractive index of the surrounding media, and the sensitivity of the dual-band EIT-like resonances can reach 150 GHz/RIU and 237.5 GHz/RIU and the quality factor values are 1.67 and 7.92, respectively. The proposed metamaterial broadens the pathway for the excitation of multi-band EIT-like effects and offers promising applications in multi-frequency sensors, filters and many other aspects.
