Terahertz refractive index sensor based on the guided resonance in a photonic crystal slab
摘要： The optical properties of a photonic crystals slab (PCS) are highly sensitive to environmental variation. PCS thus are an attractive platform for sensing application. We numerically demonstrate a terahertz refractive index sensor based on the guided resonance in a two-dimensional PCS. The PCS consists of a square lattice of air holes in a silicon slab fabricated on a quartz substrate. By varying each structural parameter systematically, we study the dependence of the resonance located around 0.508 THz on the structural parameters of PCS, and then optimize the structural parameters of PCS for a higher sensitivity. We apply the PCS sensor to detect the refractive index of analytes. The sensitivity of the sensor reaches 23.08 GHz/RIU for the resonance located around 0.508 THz. Our results provide insight into the future terahertz spectroscopy for sensing detection.

Perfect near-infrared absorption of graphene with hybrid dielectric nanostructures
摘要： Near-infrared perfect wave harvesting of graphene is theoretically and numerically obtained in a hybrid dielectric configuration without assistance of a reflecting mirror. The absorption is increased 43-fold compared to a suspended graphene layer at normal incidence. The mechanism of perfect absorption is based on critical coupling with a guided resonance introduced by a silicon bar array and Fabry–Perot (FP) effect of a silicon oxide layer. This lossless design is expected to find applications to allow the active area with effective generation and fast transport of photocarriers, paving a new way for on-chip small-footprint ultrahigh responsivity and ultrahigh-speed photodetection in silicon photonics.
