The aim of this project is to create nanostructured infrared plasmonic antennas based on the repetition of
a single sub-wavelength metal pattern forming the basic building block of an NxN matrix structure.
We will design reconfigurable infrared sources by addressing a subset of the sub-wavelength patterns making up the matrix antenna with visible laser heating forming specific patterns, in particular to control the polarization and spectral position of resonances with a view to creating smart reconfigurable infrared surfaces. We will describe the coupling between sub-wavelength patterns using simulations based on the quasi-normal mode method.
The project will be performed in collaboration with ONERA which also provides financial support.
