Split ring resonators (SRRs) are subwavelength structures that are able to localize and enhance the electromagnetic wave. Controlling the plasmonic resonance behavior of metallic nanostructures, such as SRRs, plays an important role in optoelectronics and nanophotonics applications. Electrically tunable carrier concentration of graphene provides hybrid devices, where the plasmonic structures and graphene are combined. In this paper, we report the design, fabrication, and measurement of a device comprising a SRR array on epitaxial graphene. We obtained resonance broadening and tuning of split ring resonators by utilizing an epitaxial graphene transistor with transparent top-gate. (C) 2013 AIP Publishing LLC.
