Surface plasmon resonance on blue GaN-based VCSEL with Al-grating
摘要: Based on the research of surface plasmon (SP) applied to Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Lasers (VCSEL), we proposed a new 465 nm GaN-based VCSEL to enhance illumination by deposit Al rectangular grating onto p-i-n layer. Meanwhile, an increase in the e?ective radiated power was obtained by the control of a surface plasmon mode, which depends strongly on the structural parameters such as material, period, depth and dipole location. Compared to conventional structure, we have a 30% improvement in e?ective radiated power. Such advantages make surface Al-grating be an alternative low-cost and simple technique used in SP-coupled VCSEL for the blue range.

Design of a Surface Plasmon Resonance-Enhanced ZnO Ultraviolet Photodetector Based on a Sub-wavelength Metal Grating Covered with a High-Refractive-Index Medium
摘要: To realize a surface plasmon resonance-enhanced zinc oxide (ZnO) ultraviolet photodetector based on a sub-wavelength metal grating, we take advantage of the sensitivity of the resonance condition of a sub-wavelength metal grating to the refractive index of the surrounding medium. We theoretically design a sub-wavelength Ag grating covered with a high-refractive-index medium layer and apply it to a ZnO ultraviolet photodetector. By optimizing the parameters (angle of incidence, grating period, grating spacing, grating thickness, high-refractive-index medium layer thickness, refractive index of the covering), the optical ?eld is localized at the interface of the sub-wavelength Ag grating and the ZnO thin ?lm; that is, surface plasmon resonance is realized within the device. Compared with the device without a high-refractive-index medium layer, the maximum absorption enhancement factor of the designed device can reach up to 108. This work will provide theoretical guidance to realize a surface plasmon resonance-enhanced ZnO ultraviolet photodetector with a sub-wavelength metal grating.

Determination of refractive index using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and rigorous coupled wave analysis (RCWA) with a D-shaped optical fiber and a nano-gold grating
摘要: A D-shaped optical-fiber refractive index sensor based on surface plasmon resonance is reported. Rigorous coupled-wave analysis was used to simulate the numerical modeling. The influences of different metal grating parameters on the coupling efficiency were studied and an optimal phase match was obtained. The results show that wavelength sensitivity of the proposed optical fiber sensor is as high as 0.925 lm/RIU for refractive index values from 1.35 to 1.43 with a high linearity value of 0.997. The reported structure may promote the development of high-performance biochemical sensing devices.

Miniaturized GaAs Nanowire Laser with a Metal Grating Reflector
摘要: This work proposed a miniaturized nanowire laser with high end-facet re?ection. The high end-facet re?ection was realized by integrating an Ag grating between the nanowire and the substrate. Its propagation and re?ection properties were calculated using the ?nite elements method. The simulation results show that the re?ectivity can be as high as 77.6% for a nanowire diameter of 200 nm and a period of 20, which is nearly three times larger than that of the nanowire without a metal grating re?ector. For an equal length of nanowire with/without the metal grating re?ector, the corresponding threshold gain is approximately a quarter of that of the nanowire without the metal grating re?ector. Owing to the high re?ection, the length of the nanowire can be reduced to 0.9 μm for the period of 5, resulting in a genuine nanolaser, composed of nanowire, with three dimensions smaller than 1 μm (the diameter is 200 nm). The proposed nanowire laser with a lowered threshold and reduced dimensions would be of great signi?cance in on-chip information systems and networks.

Selective terahertz emission due to electrically excited 2D plasmons in AlGaN/GaN heterostructure
摘要: Terahertz radiation emission from an electrically excited AlGaN/GaN heterostructure with a surface metal grating was studied under conditions of two-dimensional (2D) electron heating by the lateral electric field. Intensive peaks related to nonequilibrium 2D plasmons were revealed in the terahertz emission spectra with up to 4 times selective amplification of the radiation emission in the vicinity of 2D plasmon resonance. This selective emission was shown to be frequency-controllable by the grating period. Exact spectral positions of the 2D plasmon resonances were preliminarily experimentally detected with the help of equilibrium transmission spectra measured at various temperatures. The resonance positions are in a satisfactory agreement with the results of theoretical simulation of the transmission spectra performed using a rigorous solution of Maxwell’s equations. The effective temperature of hot 2D electrons was determined by means of I–V characteristics and their analysis using the power balance equation. It was shown that for a given electric field, the effective temperature of nonequilibrium 2D plasmons is close to the hot 2D electron temperature. The work may have applications in GaN-based electrically pumped emitters of terahertz radiation.
