Abstract

We present theoretical study on developing a one-dimensional (1D) photonic crystal heterojunction (h-PhC) that consists of a monolayer molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) structure. By employing the transfer matrix method, we obtained the analytical solution of the light absorption and emission of two-dimensional materials in 1D h-PhC. Simultaneously enhancing the light absorption and emission of the medium in multiple frequency ranges is easy as h-PhC has more modes of photon localization than the common photonic crystal. Our numerical results demonstrate that the proposed 1D h-PhC can simultaneously enhance the light absorption and emission of MoS2 and enhance the photoluminescence spectrum of MoS2 by 2–3 orders of magnitude.

Highlights

  • Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), such as MoS2 and WSe2, are direct-gap semiconductor 2D materials with excellent optical properties and are considered one of the best materials for future optoelectronic devices[1,2,3,4,5,6,7]

  • To further enhance the light emission and absorption of 2D TMDCs, we investigated the effect of photonic crystal heterojunction (h-photonic crystals (PhC)) on the light absorption and emission of MoS2

  • We calculated the positive incidence of the pumping light and the absorption and relative radiation intensity of MoS2 when the pumping and outgoing lights are on opposite sides of the h-PhC

Summary

Introduction

Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), such as MoS2 and WSe2, are direct-gap semiconductor 2D materials with excellent optical properties and are considered one of the best materials for future optoelectronic devices[1,2,3,4,5,6,7]. The analytical solution can be used for the light absorption and emission in h-PhC and for the calculation of other 1D PhC-2D materials composite structures. When the pumping and outgoing lights zol = dC2; When the pumping and outgoing lights are are on on the the same side of opposite side the h-PhC, rt of the h-PhC, r=t =rN′r1N,′ 2, tt tt ttNN′′12,, rb rb rrNN′′ 21,, zol = dC1; (t) is the electric amplitude against time for a single emission event (in either direction), Loc = using tnhcLecFavou=rinecr(dtrCa1n+sfodrCm2),itshteheemopitttiecdalrlaednigatthioonf microcavity, nc is the permittivity of the C1 and C2 layer.
