Normal incident light can be coupled and trapped in the dielectric layer in the form of transverse electromagnetic waves, when the structure is optimized. Therefore, the light absorption of quantum wells is greatly enhanced when the light travels back and forth in the dielectric layer. Numerical simulations are made via 2D finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method, yielding consistent results with experiments, which shows the photocurrent response increase of 21 times to the 45 degree mesa photodetector. At the same time, we observe the Rabi splitting.","PeriodicalId":337826,"journal":{"name":"2012 12th International Conference on Numerical Simulation of Optoelectronic Devices (NUSOD)","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115252017","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
