Abstract

A spatially and spectrally resolved ultra-narrowband absorber with a dielectric grating and metal substrate has been reported. The absorber shows that the absorption rate is more than 0.99 with the absorption bandwidth less than 1.5 nm at normal incidence for TE polarization (electric field is parallel to grating grooves). The angular width of the absorption is about 0.27[Formula: see text]. The wavelength-angle sensitivity and absorption-angle sensitivity are 13.4 nm per degree and 296.3% per degree, respectively. The simulation results also show the spatially and spectrally resolved ultra-narrowband absorption is originated from the guide-mode resonance. In addition, the wavelength-angle sensitivity can be improved by enlarging the grating period according to the guide-mode resonance mechanism. The proposed absorber has potential applications in optical filters, angle measurement and thermal emitters.
