Plasmonic Metastructures: processing and characteristics

  • 10:00 h, Sala B-223, ETSIT-UPM

CdO has been proven to be a TCO (transparent conductive oxide) with outstanding plasmonic properties. In this talk I recall my latest work on processing this material and designing with it plasmonic metastructures. First, a succesful protocol for etching CdO thin films using RIE ICP is shown through a set of samples where a CdO grating is performed. Using a finite element model the reflectance in the mid infrared of said samples is simulated and matched to the experimental results recorded with FTIR spectroscopy. Finally, a brief overview on Hyperbolic Metamaterials is given through the devices that we have designed using CdO.
