Zusammenfassung:A technique is provided for weakly coupling an absorber to a plasmonic device by placing an isolation layer in between them. This technique enables the spectral selective nature of a plasmonic device to be used in conjunction with an absorber. This technique optimizes the trade-off of near-field coupling and spectral selectivity to allow for deep sub-pixel examination of a scene, and is thus suited for multispectral imagers, among other applications.
