title: Dynamically tunable plasmonically induced transparency in sinusoidally curved and planar graphene layers.
abstract: To achieve plasmonically induced transparency (PIT), general near-field plasmonic systems based on couplings between localized plasmon resonances of nanostructures rely heavily on the well-designed interantenna separations. However, the implementation of such devices and techniques encounters great difficulties mainly to due to very small sized dimensions of the nanostructures and gaps between them. Here, we propose and numerically demonstrate that PIT can be achieved by using two graphene layers that are composed of a upper sinusoidally curved layer and a lower planar layer, avoiding any pattern of the graphene sheets. Both the analytical fitting and the Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) method are employed efficiently to distinguish the induced window, which is found to be more likely caused by Autler-Townes splitting (ATS) instead of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT). Besides, our results show that the resonant modes cannot only be tuned dramatically by geometrically changing the grating amplitude and the interlayer spacing, but also by dynamically varying the Fermi energy of the graphene sheets. Potential applications of the proposed system could be expected on various photonic functional devices, including optical switches, plasmonic sensors.
