Tunable MoS2 modified hybrid surface plasmon waveguides

The tunable propagation properties of MoS2 supported hybrid surface plasmon waveguides based on dielectric fiber-gap-metal substrate structures have been investigated by using the finite element method, including the effects of structural parameters, the dielectric fiber shape and carrier concentration of the MoS2 layer. The results reveal that as the dielectric fiber radius increases, the confinement of the hybrid mode increases, and the losses show a peak. The shape of the dielectric fiber affects the propagation properties obviously, with an optimum structural parameter (a large value of the elliptical parameter) the confinement and figure of merits increase, and the dissipation decreases simultaneously. In addition, as the carrier concentration of the MoS2 layer increases, the modulation depth of absorption reaches more than 40%, and the propagation constants manifest obvious double peaks at wavelengths of 610 nm (2.03 eV) and 660 nm (1.88 eV), coming from the excitons’ absorption of the MoS2 layer. The results are very useful in helping one to understand the tunable mechanisms of hybrid mode waveguide structures and for the design of novel surface plasmonic devices in the future, e.g. absorbers, modulators, lasers, and resonators.
