Abstract

We report enhanced optical transmission (EOT) through a hexagonal aperture surrounded by polygonal segmented grooves to explore its unique polarization dependence. Effects of light polarization on EOT through the hexagonal aperture were systematically investigated for three types of grooves: concentric hexagonal grooves, linear segmented grooves and wedge segmented grooves. Significant increase in EOT was observed for the polarization directed along the groove axis compared to the other orthogonal polarization, which can be further applied to polarization dependent photonic devices.
