Abstract

Here we demonstrate light blocking and phase modulation in nano-plasmonic donate shape rings based on the thermo-plasmonic effect in these structures. For this purpose, we use a laser writing system to fabricate nanohole arrays and cover them with plasmonic gold thin film via a sputtering machine. The chemical vapor deposition method is also used to produce a WS2 layer, which is suitable for light blocking and phase modulation due to the nonlinearity of this two-dimensional material. After theoretically and experimentally evaluating the plasmonic donate-shaped substrate, we use the ellipsometric method to characterize the optical modes of the samples and record the switching manner and light-blocking phenomena under the probe laser excitation set to 980 nm. Our results show phase modulation based on the thermo-plasmonic effect of nano gap in donated double rings and light blocking by thermal expansion of the WS2 layer, which can open new insight into plasmon and two-dimensional material-based devices.
