Abstract
A two-dimensional guided mode resonance structure supports a transverse magnetic (TM) resonant mode in the direction of incident polarization and a transverse electric (TE) resonant mode in the direction perpendicular to the polarization. In this work, the coupling between the transverse magnetic and the transverse electric resonant modes in an asymmetric two-dimensional dielectric metasurface structure is investigated. The asymmetric structure consists of a two-dimensional square nanohole array etched in a titanium dioxide thin film on a transparent silica substrate. With finite difference time domain simulations, anti-crossing of the resonant spectra of the TM and TE modes is observed by adjusting the asymmetry of the structure. The anti-crossing indicates that the interaction between TM and TE resonant modes results in a strong coupling state. A coupled harmonic oscillator model is used to explain the strong coupling effect. The results of the coupled harmonic oscillator modeling agree well with the results of numerical simulations. Furthermore, it is shown that the strong coupling can significantly enhance the third harmonic generation intensity compared with the uncoupled TM and TE resonant modes.
