Description

Heterogeneous metal mesh metamaterial structure for realizing circular dichroism
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of micro-nano optics, in particular to a heterogeneous metal mesh metamaterial structure for realizing circular dichroism.
Background
Chiral refers to the property of not being completely coincident with a mirror image by itself, where a chiral species and its mirror image are referred to interchangeably as the chiral counterparts. Many substances in nature have chirality in their structure, such as proteins, DNA, etc. The significance of chirality to life is particularly important, so that detection of chirality of a substance becomes a hotspot of research of numerous scientific researchers. The chirality of a substance or structure is usually detected by Circular Dichroism (CD), which can be defined as the difference in absorption rate of a chiral medium for different circularly polarized light, and the difference is Circular Dichroism.
Since chiral signals such as biomolecules are weak and generally located in a near ultraviolet band, which is inconvenient to detect, it is very important to further understand the chiral nature and the nature of circular dichroism by studying the nature of the chiral structure of the artificial metal.
The traditional metal chiral structure for realizing circular dichroism mostly adopts a multilayer structure, the multilayer chiral structure generally has good circular dichroism, but the structure is complex, so that the preparation is generally difficult in an experiment, and the difficulty in actual production and manufacturing is higher. Compared to multilayer structures, single-layer chiral structures are easier to prepare, but some optical structures provided in the prior art consist of a single medium, a complex single-layer structure needs to be designed to achieve the chiral effect, which greatly increases the difficulty of manufacturing the optical structures, and circular dichroism is generally weak.
Disclosure of Invention
In view of the above problems, the present invention is directed to a technical problem of how to design a micro-nano structure capable of realizing strong circular dichroism.
Therefore, the invention provides a heterogeneous metal mesh metamaterial structure for realizing circular dichroism, which comprises a substrate, wherein a metal structure layer is arranged on the substrate; the metal structure layer comprises two groups of metal gratings, the two groups of metal gratings are mutually intersected but not mutually perpendicular, and one group of metal gratings is cut off by the other group of metal gratings to form a periodic nanorod array.
Furthermore, the two groups of metal gratings are respectively composed of two different metals.
Further, the thicknesses of the two groups of gratings of the heterogeneous metal mesh metamaterial structure can be different from each other.
Further, the two groups of metal grating periods T1 and T2 may be different, and the respective metal line widths w1 and w2 may also be different values.
Furthermore, the included angle between the two groups of metal gratings is an acute angle.
Further, the substrate may be made of different materials.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the beneficial effects that:
1. the optical structure for enhancing circular dichroism of circularly polarized light provided by the invention has good circular dichroism, can improve the circular dichroism to about 40%, enables the circular dichroism to be more prominent, lays a foundation for the application of the circular dichroism, and can dynamically adjust the circular dichroism by setting different periods, metal wire widths and included angles;
2. the optical structure for enhancing circular dichroism of circularly polarized light is simple in preparation method and low in preparation cost, and has a good application prospect when being used as a detection component of a high-sensitivity biological chiral structure.

furthermore, the periods and the metal line widths of the gold grating and the silver grating are respectively 400nm and 140nm, and the included angle between the two groups of gratings is 65 degrees. The thickness of the metal layer is 50nm.
