Plasmonically Induced Transparency in Hexagon Boron Nitride–Graphene–Silica Grating-Based Structure Within the Upper Reststrahlen Band and Outside the Reststrahlen Band

Plasmonically induced transparency (PIT) in hexagon boron nitride (h-BN)-graphene-silica grating-based structure is proposed and demonstrated. By tuning the chemical potential of graphene and changing the geometry parameters of the proposed structure, PIT can be realized both within the upper restst...
