Plasmonic resonances of metallic moiré superlattices in the infrared range

The recent surge of interest in moiré photonics arises from the possibility of exploring many groundbreaking physical phenomena in photonics. These phenomena include photonic topological states and magic-angle lasing, which offer an attractive platform for manipulating the flow and confinement of light from remarkably simple device geometries. In this work, we fabricate a series of metallic moiré superlattices supporting moiré plasmon polaritons and explore the moiré-potential induced plasmonic resonances. We demonstrate that two-dimensional moiré plasmonic superlattices exhibit transmittance and polarization-dependent responses because of the localized plasmonic resonances in the infrared range, whose modes have a near-flat dispersion band. Our findings hold the potential for the understanding of localized plasmonic resonances within moiré superlattices.
