Dual-band unidirectional reflectionless phenomena in an ultracompact non-Hermitian plasmonic waveguide system based on near-field coupling

Abstract

Dual-band unidirectional reflectionlessness and coherent perfect absorption (CPA) are demonstrated in a non-Hermitian plasmonic waveguide system based on near-field coupling between a single resonator and the resonant modes of two resonators showing an electromagnetically induced-transparency-like (EIT-like) effect. The non-Hermitian plasmonic system consists of three metal-insulator-metal (MIM) resonators coupled to a MIM plasmonic waveguide.
