Abstract

A grating-assisted triple-layer continuous borophene sheets structure is presented to investigate the phase-coupled plasmon-induced transparency (PIT) effect at the near-infrared communication band. In the proposed structure, the diffraction grating is utilized to couple the normal incident waves, which excites the quasi-guided mode in triple-layer continuous borophene sheets. Compared to the patterned structure, the requirement of complicated processing techniques and extra doping configurations for tuning carrier density can be avoided by using the continuous borophene sheet. Additionally, the narrower transparency windows are shown in the spectral responses via the phase coupling between two detuned quasi-guided modes with high quality factors. The transparency windows can be efficiently tuned by adjusting the carrier densities in borophene sheets or the separation distances between the borophene sheets. The analytical results based on temporal coupled mode theory and transfer matrix method are consistent with the numerical simulations via finite-difference time-domain calculations. The proposed scheme provides the promising design of a tunable PIT component that is compatible with optical communication technology.
