Abstract

Surface plasmon filters have a wide range of applications in nano-integrated optics because of simple structure and easy integration. Traditional noble metals used for surface plasmon filters are expensive. In this paper, we propose an infrared filter by using TiN. By adjusting the thickness of the metal replacement layer TiN and the photoresist waveguide layer, a pure 2 μm infrared filter is obtained. The full width at half maximum reaches 21.26 nm. Furthermore, the wavelength of peak of filter can be adjusted conveniently from 0.8 to 2.5 µm by modulating the period. Our study provides a theoretical basis for finding cheap alternatives to the materials used in plasma filters.
