Abstract :
In this work, an infrared anti-reflective layer composed of a grid of nano-antennas made of gold is proposed. To minimize the reflection from the interface of two media the nano-antenna array is buried inside the substrate. The spectral response and the angular dependency of the proposed structure is simulated.
