Enhanced transmission through metal films perforated with circular and cross-dipole apertures

We reported here the experimental results of the metal film perforated with circular and cross-dipole apertures. The transmission spectrum of the sample with a complex unit cell is substantially different from that of the corresponding sample with a simple unit cell. The localized surface plasmon polaritons are suggested to be involved into the enhanced transmission.
