Design of mid-infrared filter array based on plasmonic metal nanodiscs array and its application to on-chip spectrometer

Abstract Mid-infrared wavelengths are called the molecular fingerprint region because it contains the fundamental vibrational modes inherent to the substances of interest. Since the mid-infrared spectrum can provide non-destructive identification and quantitative analysis of unknown substances, mini...
