研究目的
Investigating the electromagnetic scattering of THz waves from a microsize graphene-sandwiched thin dielectric strip.
研究成果
The analysis demonstrates that the composite graphene-dielectric-graphene strip exhibits surface plasmon resonances at lower THz frequencies, with resonance peaks shifting with chemical potential. At higher frequencies, graphene effects diminish, and the behavior approaches that of a bare dielectric strip. The Nystrom method provides accurate and convergent results, validated by error plots. This work can be extended to E-polarization for completeness.
研究不足
The study assumes an infinitely thin strip and neglects inner fields, which may not capture all physical effects. It is limited to H-polarization and 2-D modeling; extension to E-polarization and 3-D scenarios is suggested for future work. The accuracy depends on numerical discretization, and edge effects are disregarded for wider strips.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study uses a theoretical and numerical approach based on singular integral equations (SIE) and Nystrom discretization to model the scattering problem. Generalized boundary conditions (GBC) are applied for the composite graphene-dielectric-graphene structure, treating it as infinitely thin.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The model involves a thin dielectric strip with relative permittivity εr, covered by graphene layers on both sides, placed in free space. Parameters include strip width d, thickness h, chemical potential μc, temperature T, and relaxation time τ.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
No physical equipment is used; the study is computational. Materials modeled include graphene with surface conductivity from Kubo formula and dielectric with specified permittivity.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The electromagnetic boundary value problem is formulated using Helmholtz equation and Sommerfeld radiation condition. SIEs are derived and solved numerically using Gauss-Legendre and Gauss-Chebyshev quadrature rules for discretization. Scattering and absorption cross-sections are computed.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Relative errors for current densities and scattering cross-section are calculated to validate convergence. Results are analyzed for surface plasmon resonances and frequency-dependent behavior.
