摘要
We demonstrated that transmittance and field intensities of a thick metal sandwiched between two dielectric photonic crystals (PCs) can be enhanced by more than two orders of magnitude and by nearly 20 times, respectively, compared to a single metal layer with the same thickness. Under the tunneling mechanism, the light can enter the sandwiched structure without reflection and localizes at the two interfaces of the metal film and PCs. This configuration of fields facilitates the reduction of absorption in the metal. Experimental results are in good agreement with simulations. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics.
