Description

A kind of spiral type artificial surface plasma field intensity booster
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of enhanced intensity device structure, more particularly, to a kind of spiral type artificial surface plasma enhanced intensity Device structure.
Background technology
Surface plasmons (Surface Plasmon Polaritons, abbreviation SPPs), is to there is metal and medium A kind of electronics on (typically air) interface and the mixed activation state of photon.SPPs is a kind of surface wave, can break through diffraction The limit, electromagnetic field is constrained in the range of the sub-wavelength near metal and medium interface, has very strong field enhancement effect.For The research of SPPs had once once been limited in optical band or higher frequency, due to the good characteristic of SPPs, if by surface etc. The concept of ion excimer, to low-frequency range (microwave or terahertz wave band), contributes to obtaining high binding microwave or Terahertz The guided wave technology of signal, and it is highly integrated to realize that the device size of low-frequency range is reduced to sub-wavelength magnitude.But due to gold The plasma frequency belonging to typically all in ultraviolet band, metal low-frequency range dielectric constant very big so that the skin that becomes of electromagnetic wave Depth very little, so, in low-frequency range, metal is similar to perfact conductor (Perfect Electric Conductor, PEC), from And make the field constraint in metal surface for the SPPs very poor it is impossible to realize there is effect spread on the metal surface, greatly limit SPPs Application in low-frequency range.In recent years it is thus proposed that metal surface borehole or cutting method, electromagnetic field can not only be increased in gold Penetrating power in genus, can also realize field sub-wavelength constraint, and the equivalent plasma frequency of body structure surface only with surface The geometric parameter of structure is relevant, such that it is able to carry out engineering design in lower frequency to SPPs.This plasma frequency is subject to table The surface plasma that face geometry controls is referred to as artificial surface plasmon (Spoof Surface Plasmon Polaritons, abbreviation SSPPs).Its basic thought is the hole digging period profile in metal surface, the size of hole and interval Much smaller than wavelength, to strengthen the osmosiss of electromagnetic wave, thus by the means of effective medium reduce metal surface etc. Ion frequency.2005, Hibbins et al. confirmed SSPPs phenomenon in microwave section, and subsequently, Williams et al. is also in terahertz Hereby wave band demonstrates the presence of SSPPs, is that new page has been opened in development and the application of low frequency SPPs.SSPPs causes since then The great interest of researcher.
Metal wire smooth at present is considered as one of best terahertz waveguide.This guided wave has low-loss and low color Scattered advantage, but constraint is poor.Therefore, Maier et al. has arrived the concept of SSPPs in the geometry position shape of metal wire, Demonstrate the sub-wavelength ring groove that periodic distribution is carved along its length on ideal wire in theory, SSPPs can be transmitted, And realize field sub-wavelength constraint, thus realizing the local enhancement effect of microwave or THz wave, for periodicity metal wire structure In microwave or terahertz imaging, high-resolution medical endoscopes technology, biological detection, national security, food and agricultural product quality Control, global environment detects and wide prospect has been opened up in the application in the field such as information and radar communication technology.
All the time, the conversion of space guided wave to SPPs is extensively studied, such as by prism-coupled or diffraction grating.But For how by space guided wave be efficiently converted into SSPPs research very few.2013, Southeast China University proposed one kind in microwave Frequency range realizes guided wave to the structure of the efficient conversion of SSPPs, and it is tied by traditional co-planar waveguide and " tooth type " ultra-thin periodicity Structure metal band plasma waveguide is constituted, and devises the matching transition band of gash depth gradual change between the two.Matching transition part Achieve wave vector coupling and the impedance matching of co-planar waveguide and plasma waveguide, this structure microwave section achieve from guided wave to High efficiency between Spoof SPPs and wide-band conversion, are plasma functional device and circuit is opened in the highly integrated of microwave section Create application prospect.However, it is contemplated that ultra-thin " tooth type " plasma waveguide and wire-form plasma waveguide transmission electromagnetic field The difference of form, such scheme will be no longer applicable.

Wherein, transition waceguide includes inner conductor transition and outer conductor transition, and inner conductor transition is towards spiral type artificial surface etc. Periodic spin type groove array that ion wave guide direction is incremented by by depth is realized, and outer conductor transition is towards spiral type artificial surface etc. Ion wave guide direction is realized by the electromagnetic horn that opening becomes larger;Spiral type artificial surface plasma waveguide is by two parts group Become, Part I is the spiral type groove array that depth and width are constant, inside radius successively decreases, the cycle is constant, Part II is cone Shape top, is reduced by depth and radius simultaneously and the spiral groove in the vanishing of cone point top is constituted.
It is tapered tip in the tip designs of structure, tapered tip is carved with the spiral type groove of inside radius gradual change to zero, There is good transition on the top making spiral type groove array to structure.This structure not only makes full use of the stronger field of SSPPs about Shu Xiaoying, make use of the focus characteristics of pyramidal structure simultaneously, and then the apex in structure enables efficient focusing function.
The present invention can adjust transition waceguide and spiral type plasma waveguide according to the type of coaxial waveguide and size Physical dimension, thus realize microwave section or terahertz wave band space guided wave efficiently converting with broadband to SSPPs, and then reaches micro- Ripple or the effect of Terahertz frequency range enhanced intensity, realize artificial surface plasma Meta Materials and are more widely applied.
