Identification of the absorption processes in periodic plasmonic structures using energy absorption interferometry

Absorption in periodic layered structures

Photonic band structure of metal-dielectric and semiconductor-dielectric layered structures are studied in the presence of a strong absorption. It is shown that absorption can enlarge some gaps by as much as 50%. # 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Optimization of extraordinary optical absorption in plasmonic and dielectric structures

Efficient terahertz electro-absorption modulation employing graphene plasmonic structures

We propose and discuss terahertz (THz) electro-absorption modulators based on graphene plasmonic structures. The active device consists of a self-gated pair of graphene layers, which are patterned to structures supporting THz plasmonic resonances. These structures allow for efficient control of the effective THz optical conductivity, thus absorption, even at frequencies much higher than the Dru...

measurement the absorption capacity of solar energy storage technology

Although solar energy is one of the most important renewable energies in Iran that most areas of the country, especially the Central Desert, have considerable ability to use, but the random nature of this type of energy makes it difficult to predict its output power and may cause problems in the performance of the feed systems. For this reason, the use of energy storage systems for periods of l...
