研究目的
Investigating the fabrication and spectral properties of terahertz anti-reflection structures on high-resistivity silicon using femtosecond laser processing.
研究成果
The fabricated silicon moth-eye broadband AR structure shows promising broadband increase in transmissivity from 0.3 to 2.5 THz, with maximum values above 90%. The observed high-frequency drop-off in transmittance is attributed to changing material property near the fabricated region, possibly due to amorphization of silicon under femtosecond laser irradiation. This structure is a promising device for high-power and high-sensitivity THz applications, particularly in the 1-2 THz range.
研究不足
The exact origin of the absorption causing the high-frequency drop-off in transmittance is unclarified. Potential areas for optimization include the height of the fabricated moth-eye structure for better AR functionality in the low-frequency regime.
