▎ 摘  要

The two coplanar graphene strips coupling system supported on substrates is proposed and constructed on a monolayer graphene by spatially varying gate voltages. It is investigated numerically by using the finite-difference time-domain method. Simulation results reveal that despite of no traditional ring, disk, and rectangular geometry resonators used usually in metallic plasmonic filters, this structure based on the edge mode propagation exhibits an original, ultra-narrowband band-stop filtering effect in the mid-infrared region. This filtering effect results from the novel side-coupled resonator formed by the parallel graphene strips. The transmission spectrum is tuned and modified not only by engineering the locations of gate voltages without re-fabricating structures but also via changing substrates. Simulation results are consistent with the theoretical analysis. Our studies hence support the fabrication of ultra-compact planar plasmonic devices in nano-integrated circuits.
