Design and optimization of a SiC thermal emitter/absorber composed of periodic microstructures based on a non-linear method |
(a) Theoretical dispersion curves of SPhP modes for Air/SiC/ZnSe structure with SiC layer thickness of d = 2.0 μm (dot-dash), d = 1.0 μm (dash), and d = 0.5 μm (dot). The solid curves represent the case with d assumed infinity. (b) Theoretical dispersion curves of SPhPs folded into the first Brillion zone of the grating with Λ = 6.0 μm: air/SiC interface (dash) and SiC/ZnSe interface (solid). |
