Selecting detection wavelength of resonant cavity-enhanced photodetectors by guided-mode resonance reflectors.

چکیده
We propose and demonstrate a novel device structure of resonant cavity-enhanced photodetector (RCE-PD). The new RCE-PD structure consists of a bottom distributed Bragg reflector (DBR), a cavity with InGaAs multiple quantum wells (MQWs) for light absorption and a top mirror of sub-wavelength grating. By changing the fill factor of the 2-D grating, the effective cavity length of RCE-PDs can be varied so the resonant wavelength can be selected post growth. Accordingly, we can fabricate an array of PDs on a single chip, on which every PD aims for a specific wavelength.

CoupledC avity Distributed-Resonance Photodetectors
A new type of resonant enhanced photodetectors based on the one dimensional photonic bandgap is proposed. It can potentially overcome problems encountered in resonant-cavity-enhanced photodetectors. Resonating structures with very high quality factors and large free spectral ranges can be obtained by varying the optical parameters of the grating overlay without the presence of rigid design cons...
متن کاملField penetrations in photonic crystal Fano reflectors.
We report here the field and modal characteristics in photonic crystal (PC) Fano reflectors. Due to the tight field confinement and the compact reflector size, the cavity modes are highly localized and confined inside the single layer Fano reflectors, with the energy penetration depth of only 100nm for a 340 nm thick Fano reflector with a design wavelength of 1550 nm. On the other hand, the pha...

Resonant cavity enhanced (RCE) photodiodes (PD’s) are promising candidates for applications in optical communications and interconnects where high-speed high-efficiency photodetection is desirable. In RCE structures, the electrical properties of the photodetector remain mostly unchanged; however, the presence of the microcavity causes wavelength selectivity accompanied by a drastic increase of ...

متن کاملCavity-enhanced multispectral photodetector using phase-tuned propagation: theory and design.
We propose and theoretically analyze what we believe to be a novel design of cavity-enhanced photodetectors capable of sensing multiple wavelengths simultaneously in a single pixel. The design is based on phase-tuned propagation of resonant modes in cascaded planar resonant cavities. We show that this concept can be generalized to detect multiple wavelength combinations covering the entire near...
