Abstract
The light transmittance of metal film with periodic slits and grooves structure has been investigated. It was demonstrated that the grooves significantly affect the transmittance of the metal film. The structure excavating two grooves symmetric to the central slit in a cell of a period grating displays a dent in the transmission spectrum comparing with the structure with only one slit in the cell. Deepening the grooves moves the dents to the longer wavelengths in the transmission spectrum. An analytical equation is also provided to approximately locate the dents. The grooves in the grating filter supply the advantage of removing the needless transmission of certain frequency.
