The experimental observation of graphene plasmon resonance has generated tremendous interest due to numerous potential applications such as photosensors, detectors, biosensors, and switches from THz to mid-infrared regime. However, practical applications require much larger dimensions (mm to cm scale) than that demonstrated in the proof-of-concept devices. Moreover, such devices also require a detailed understanding of ribbon-to-ribbon interaction, which has not been investigated so far. Here we demonstrate gate tunable plasmon resonance in the mid-infrared spectral region on millimeter-scale graphene nanoribbon (GNR) array devices fabricated using graphene monolayer. Gate dependent Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) transmission measurements on GNR of various widths were investigated experimentally. The shift in plasmon resonance peaks of wave number 100 cm−1 at applied external gate voltage −100 V was observed. This shift is attributed to strong gate modulation. Our investigation of ribbon-to-ribbon interaction by tuning the aspect ratio reveals strong modulation of surface plasmon resonance peaks in GNR. This suggests that plasmon resonances are coupled as evidenced by blue-shifted plasmon resonance. These studies demonstrate that large-area GNR devices can serve as an ideal platform for ultrasensitive sensing and detector applications.
