Abstract

All-dielectric binary gratings, with and without slab waveguides, are designed to generate polarization-independent guided-mode resonance filters (GMRFs) operating in the THz frequency region using the rigorous coupled-wave analysis (RCWA) method. The filling factor and thickness of the grating were adjusted to have equal resonance frequencies of transverse electric (TE)- and transverse magnetic (TM)-polarized THz beams. The single polarization-independent resonance for a binary grating without a slab waveguide was obtained at 0.459 THz with full width at half maximum (FWHM) values of 8.3 and 8.5 GHz for the TE and TM modes, respectively. Moreover, double-layered polarization-independent resonances for binary gratings with slab waveguides were obtained at 0.369 and 0.442 THz with very high Q-factors of up to 284. This is the first study to propose a polarization-independent GMRF with two resonant frequencies.
