Graphene devices have been widely explored for photonic applications, as they serve as promising candidates for controlling light interactions resulting in extreme confinement and tunability of graphene plasmons. The ubiquitous presence of surface crumples in graphene, very less is known on how the crumples in graphene can affect surface plasmon resonance and its absorption properties. In this article, a novel approach based on the crumpled graphene is investigated to realize broadband tunability of plasmonic resonance through the mechanical reconfiguration of crumpled graphene resonators. The mechanical reconfiguration of graphene crumples combined with dual electrostatic gating (i.e. raising the Fermi level from 0.2-0.4 eV) of graphene serves as a tuning knob enabling broad spectral tunability of plasmonic resonance in the wavelength range of 14-24 μm. The crumpled region in the resonators exhibits an effective trapping potential where it extremely confines the surface plasmonic field on the surfaces of crumples providing localized surface plasmon resonance at the apices of these crumples. Finally, to achieve near-unity absorption >99 at the resonance wavelengths (17 μm and 22 μm) crumpled graphene resonators are loaded with four ring shaped metamaterials which result in the enhanced near-field intensity of �1.4�106. This study delivers insight into the tunability of crumpled graphene and their coupling mechanism by providing a new platform for the flexible and gate tunable graphene sensors at the infrared region. © 2020 Optical Society of America.
