Abstract
In this work, a configuration of nano plasmonic switch is proposed and investigated. The structure is comprised of the combination of split square ring and straight waveguides. Simulations are done based on Finite-Difference-Time Domain method. The structure is based on metal-insulator-metal configuration. Split square ring and straight waveguides are consisted of air, which are situated in a silver background. The proposed switch can confine light to sub-wavelength dimensions (on the order of nano meter); therefore it can be used in highly integrated optical circuits. The split square ring structure can operate both directly or reversely based on the split position. The transmitted powers in different cases of split square switch are acceptable and higher than 0.6. Therefore, the proposed switch is an appropriate candidate for highly integrated optical communication systems.
