| Metamaterials are artificial metallic structures having, possibly, simultaneously negative permittivity and negative permeability which is called a double negative medium. To achieve a visible light range of the metamaterial, the unit cell of the metamaterial units should be 10-200nm. It is a much bigger structure than a size of normal atom. Still, the resolution of fabrication, which is difficult part, should typically be a few nanometers to achieve a nano-level unit.;We study Ag thin-film as a convenient candidate for metamaterial over a specific frequency range. Because, the thin film metal is composed of disk shape island structures itself. These represent be each metamaterial unit cell. To model the metamaterial model for each thickness of silver, we use surface plasmon-polaritons which is called SPPs. It can coupled Prism and metal to check where is plasmon resonance angle. This specific angle and the reflectivity of a thin silver film are function of metal and dielectric of thickness and metal's permittivity and dielectric function of layer. Experimental measurements of SPPs and Simon's simulation show good agreement with the COMSOL Multiphysics metamaterial model. And we demonstrate the annealing method for a thin film metal is nice approach to change the surface plasmon resonance angle. The theory of SPPs is explained using the Drude model and Maxwell equation. |
