摘要

Optical simulations of 1D digital plasmonic gratings on a Silicon substrate are performed by means of the Finite Elements Method and a modal analysis. The different mechanisms of transmission of the light are elucidated. The absorption profile in Silicon can be modulated and controlled changing the geometry. Configuration maps allow to determine the different optical regimes. Surface Plasmon Polaritons and cavity-mode resonances are shown to be effectively exploitable to enhance NIR-light absorption in different shallower regions of the underlying Silicon.
