研究目的
To study the plasmon-polariton spectra in one-dimensional photonic crystals based on quasiperiodic sequences with graphene at the interface, focusing on the fractal nature of the spectra and the influence of graphene sheets.
研究成果
The study demonstrates that plasmon-polariton spectra in quasiperiodic photonic crystals with graphene exhibit fractal properties, obeying a power law in specific frequency regions. The quasiperiodic ordering and graphene sheets significantly influence the spectra, with surface modes showing anti-crossing effects. The findings provide insights into the design of graphene-based devices in the terahertz regime.
研究不足
The study ignores the role of absorption in SiO2 for the temperature and frequencies of interest, which might affect the accuracy of the results. The use of the transfer-matrix method, while computationally efficient, may not capture all physical nuances compared to more accurate methods like the Finite Element Method.
