A one-dimensional dielectric grating, based on a simple geometry, is proposed and investigated to enhance light absorption in a monolayer graphene exploiting guided mode resonances. Numerical findings reveal that the optimized configuration is able to absorb up to 60% of the impinging light at normal incidence for both TE and TM polarizations resulting in a theoretical enhancement factor of about 26 with respect to the monolayer graphene absorption (≈2.3%). Experimental results confirm this behavior showing CVD graphene absorbance peaks up to about 40% over narrow bands of a few nanometers. The simple and flexible design points to a way to realize innovative, scalable and easy-to-fabricate graphene-based optical absorbers.
基于一种简单几何结构,提出并研究了一种一维介质光栅,以利用导模共振增强单层石墨烯中的光吸收。数值研究结果表明,对于TE和TM偏振,优化后的结构在正入射时能够吸收高达60%的入射光,相对于单层石墨烯的吸收率(约2.3%),理论增强因子约为26。实验结果证实了这种现象,显示出化学气相沉积(CVD)石墨烯在几纳米的窄波段上吸光度峰值高达约40%。这种简单且灵活的设计为实现创新、可扩展且易于制造的基于石墨烯的光吸收器指明了一条道路。
