Abstract

We theoretically and numerically investigate an ultrafast and low power d ynamically tunable plasmon induced transparency (PIT) in dual ring cavities side coupled with a metal dielectric metal (MDM) plasmonic waveguide system. With dynamically tuning the propagation phase of the plasmonic waveguide, π phase shift of the transmis sion spectrum in the PIT system is achieved under excitation of a pump light with an intensity as low as 5.83 MW/cm 2 . The group delay is controlled between 0.19 and 0.68 ps. This work provides a simple approach for designing ultrafast and tunable PIT devic es and has potential applications in ultrafast optical switching, ultrasensitive sensor and light storage..
