Abstract
In this paper, we numerically investigate the band-stop properties of single- or few-layers doped graphene ribbon arrays operating in the mid-infrared region by finite-difference time-domain method (FDTD). A perfect band-stop filter with extinction ratio (ER) ∼17 dB, 3 dB bandwidth ∼200 nm and the resonance notch located at 6.64 μm can be achieved. And desired working regions can be obtained by tuning the Fermi level (Ef) of the graphene ribbons and the geometrical parameters of the structure. Besides, by tuning the Fermi level of odd or even graphene ribbons with terminal gate voltage, we can achieve a dual-circuit switch with four states combinations of on-to-off. Furthermore, the multiple filter notches can be achieved by stacking few-layers structure, and the filter dips can be dynamically tuned to achieve the tunability and selective characteristics by tuning the Fermi-level of the graphene ribbons in the system. We believe that our proposal has the potential applications in selective filters and active plasmonic switching in the mid-infrared region.
