Can a terahertz metamaterial sensor be improved by ultra-strong coupling with a high-Q photonic resonator?

When a metamaterial (MM) is embedded in a one-dimensional photonic crystal (PC) cavity, the ultra-strong coupling between the MM plasmons and the photons in the PC cavity gives rise to two new polariton modes with high quality factor. Here, we investigate by simulations whether such a strongly coupl...
