H-Shaped Resonant Optical Antennas with Slot Coupling

H-Shaped Resonant Optical Antennas with Slot Coupling:
Abstract
H-shaped resonant optical antennas are proposed by adding resonant strips at the ends of arms of short dipole antennas. Numerical
simulations using finite-difference time-domain method show that the H-shaped antennas present greater electric field enhancement
compared with optical dipole antennas at the same resonant wavelength. The slot coupling between the two arms also results
in a smaller full width at half maximum of the scattering spectra. Two field-enhancing mechanisms are found to decide the
resonant properties of the H-shaped antennas. The influence of the geometry is studied.
