Absorption enhancement in 1D Ag/SiO2 metallic-dielectric photonic crystals
نویسندگان
چکیده
The one-dimensional Ag/SiO2 metallic-dielectric photonic crystals (PCs) have been prepared. The absorption enhancement effect over the corresponding metal of 1D Ag/SiO2 metallic-dielectric multi-layer structures has been measured. The enhancement effect increases with the number of layers increasing. The origin of this phenomenon and its effect on the transmittance and reflectance have been discussed.

Broadband light absorption with multiple surface plasmon polariton waves excited at the interface of a metallic grating and photonic crystal.
Light incident upon a periodically corrugated metal/dielectric interface can generate surface plasmon polariton (SPP) waves. This effect is used in many sensing applications. Similar metallodielectric nanostructures are used for light trapping in solar cells, but the gains are modest because SPP waves can be excited only at specific angles and with one linear polarization state of incident ligh...

Recently, photonic crystals doped with liquid crystal (LC) material havegained much research interest. In this article new ternary one-dimensional photoniccrystal introduced and studied. The liquid crystal layer of 5CB and 5PCH is sandwichedby two dielectric layers. For the first time, we use four structures SiO2/UCF35/CaF2,SiO2/5CB/CaF2, NFK51/UCF35/NPSK53 and NFK51/5CB/NPSK53. The effect ofte...
متن کاملPhotochemical incorporation of silver quantum dots in monodisperse silica colloids for photonic crystal applications.
We developed a novel method to fabricate nanocomposite monodisperse SiO2 spheres (approximately 100 nm) containing homogeneously dispersed Ag quantum dots (approximately 2 to 5 nm). The inclusion morphology is controlled through the timing of the photochemical reduction of silver ions during hydrolysis of tetraethoxysilane in a microemulsion. Depending on the timing, Ag quantum dots can be dire...
متن کاملElectromagnetic Waves Propagation Characteristics in Superconducting Photonic Crystals
Photonic crystals (PCs) are structures with periodically modulated dielectric constants whose distribution follows a periodicity of the order of a fraction of the optical wavelength. Since the first pioneering work in this field, many new interesting ideas have been developed dealing with one-dimensional (1D), two-dimensional (2D), and threedimensional (3D) PCs. Researchers have proposed many n...
متن کاملComparative Study of the One Dimensional Dielectric and Metallic Photonic Crystals
The optical transmission properties of two types of photonic crystals have been analyzed by using the transfer matrix method. The first one is the dielectric photonic crystal (DPC), and the second is the metallic photonic crystal (MPC). We found the dielectric and metallic photonic crystals have different transmission spectra. The effect of the most parameters on the transmission spectra of the...
