摘要
We demonstrated the extraordinary transmission of light through a freestanding Au thin film with a 7x7 subwavelength aperture array and double slits. Firstly, we observed the dependence of the change in the light transmission through a plasmonic structure on the pitch size of the aperture array. Also, we fabricated a freestanding Au thin film to avoid the effects of absorption and reflection of the substrate. We perforated the 7x7 subwavelength hole array on the Au film for extraordinary optical transmission caused by the electric field enhancement from the structures. Additionally, we designed a hybrid structure composed of 7x7 subwavelength apertures and double slits to enhance the transmission of the light. The normalized-to-area transmission of the hybrid structures was approximately five times greater than that of the structures without double slits.
