Abstract:It is found that the TM light transmittance and polarized extinction ratio in the near infrared range (0.9-1.7 µm) can be greatly increased by incorporating a dielectric layer between metal gratings (MGs) and high refractive index substrate (InP). The role of the dielectric layer and the physical mechanism of the polarized transmittance improvement are elucidated based on numerical simulation. Besides anti-reflection role as it is known to all, the incorporated dielectric layer is found eliminating energy loss… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
