▎ 摘　　要

Plasmonic trimers composed of equal-sized graphene nanodisks are proposed in this paper. The symmetry-breaking effect on the electromagnetic properties of the nanostructure is numerically investigated by studying plasmon energy diagrams and optical scattering spectra in mid-infrared range with a gradient vertex angle. The degenerate plasmonic modes are lifted and new modes appear with increased vertex angle. The energy diagrams are consistent with scattering extinction spectra, about which the dipole moment distribution of the proposed structure is discussed to demonstrate the coupling strength of the collective plasmonic modes of the trimer. More specifically, the frequency tunability of the plasmonic trimer is pointed out by modifying the chemical potential of the graphene nanodisks without varying the geometric configuration. The proposed structure might find applications such as light-matter interaction, single molecule detection, and high-sensitivity chemical sensing.
