Abstract :
The effects of several critical manufacturing artifacts on the performance of nano-scale frequency selective surfaces are investigated. The study is performed via a frequency-dependent FDTD modeling tool that includes surface plasmon effects. Simulation results are verified via experimental data. Our investigations show that manufacturing artifacts can lead to significant variations in infrared filter performance.
