碳纳米管与光子结构的电磁耦合增强光电流效率

Enhanced Photocurrent Efficiency of a Carbon Nanotube Electromagnetically Coupled to a Photonic Structure

Bryan M. Wong, Alfredo M. Morales

摘要:

我们提出了一个碳纳米管pn结电磁耦合到一个高效的光子结构的光电流功率增强的计算。特别注意的是专门修改的GaAs光子结构,以增加红外线的强度到纳米管区域进行有效的能量转换。使用时域有限差分计算,我们计算出纳米管区域中电场强度的显著增加,这使得能够估计功率效率。这些结果证明了使用光子结构将大规模红外源与碳纳米管耦合的潜力,同时仍然保留了在纳米尺度上发现的所有独特的光电特性。

英文摘要:

We present photocurrent power-enhancement calculations of a carbon nanotube p-n junction electromagnetically coupled to a highly-efficient photonic structure. Particular attention is paid to a GaAs photonic structure specifically modified to increase the intensity of infrared light onto the nanotube region for effective energy conversion. Using finite-difference time-domain calculations, we compute a significant increase in electric field intensity in the nanotube region which enables an estimation of power efficiency. These results demonstrate the potential of using a photonic structure to couple large-scale infrared sources with carbon nanotubes while still retaining all the unique optoelectronic properties found at the nanoscale.
