RESUMO
We have studied both theoretically and experimentally symmetric and asymmetric planar metallic Split Ring Resonators. We demonstrate that introducing structural asymmetry makes it possible to excite several higher order modes of both even (l = 2) and odd (l = 3, 5) order, which are otherwise inaccessible for a normally incident plane wave in symmetric structures. Experimentally we observe that the even mode resonances of asymmetric resonators have a quality factor 5.8 times higher than the higher order odd resonances.
RESUMO
We demonstrate the fabrication and analysis of well-ordered high-resolution quasiperiodic nanostructures with feature sizes down to a few tens of nanometers using extreme ultraviolet interference lithography. A well-controlled mask manufacturing process for producing high quality transmission diffraction masks enables simple and fast fabrication of highly ordered 2D quasiperiodic structures using 5- and 8-beam interference setups.
