Abstract

We have observed a new phenomenon of the enhanced optical reflection and transmission from a subwavelength metallic slit with surface corrugations. The reflected energy is focused by the periodic structure and our experiment shows that it is more effective than a planar metal surface in real situations. The transmission spectrum performs the feature of a multipeak narrow-band transmission with a wavelength spacing of 1.4 nm resulting from the FP cavity resonance in the substrate film. Such optical response properties of our sample will be very useful for applications in many fields including wavelength-division-multiplexing (WDM) optical communications systems.
