Recently, the fabrication and optimization of nano-hole arrays in noble metal layers have attracted much attention both because of the interesting new physics associated with them and for their potential applications in nano-optics and biosensing. In particular nano-hole arrays in metal-dielectric-metal stacks, also known as "fish-net" type structures, are nowadays the best candidates to accomplish some suggestive physical phenomena like negative refractive index. Here we report a design and a parametrical analysis of a fishnet in the optical spectral range. In particular the dependence of both the magnetic and the electric resonance on the geometric features of the fishnet is investigated.

Abstract
Recently, the fabrication and optimization of nano-hole arrays in noble metal layers have attracted much attention both because of the interesting new physics associated with them and for their potential applications in nano-optics and biosensing. In particular nano-hole arrays in metal-dielectric-metal stacks, also known as "fish-net" type structures, are nowadays the best candidates to accomplish some suggestive physical phenomena like negative refractive index. Here we report a design and a parametrical analysis of a fishnet in the optical spectral range. In particular the dependence of both the magnetic and the electric resonance on the geometric features of the fishnet is investigated.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
