摘要

The relative coupling efficiency of two-dimensional (2D) grating based on surface plasmon for very long wavelength quantum well infrared detector is analyzed by using the three-dimensional finite-difference time domain (3D-FDTD) method algorithm.The relative coupling efficiency with respect to the grating parameters,such as grating pitch,duty ratio,and grating thickness,is analyzed.The calculated results show that the relative coupling efficiency would reach the largest value for the 14.5 μm incident infrared light when taking the grating pitch as 4.4 tm,the duty ratio as 0.325,and the grating thickness as 0.07 μm,respectively.
