Abstract
The polarization-independent enhanced absorption effect of graphene in the near-infrared range is investigated. This is achieved by placing a graphene square array on top of a dielectric square array backed by a two-dimensional multilayer grating. Total optical absorption in graphene can be attributed to critical coupling, which is achieved through the combined effect of guided-mode resonance with the dielectric square array and the photonic band gap with the two-dimensional multilayer grating. To reveal the physical origin of such a phenomenon, the electromagnetic field distributions for both polarizations are illustrated. The designed graphene absorber exhibits near-unity polarization-independent absorption at resonance with an ultra-narrow spectrum. Moreover, the polarization-independent absorption can be tuned simply by changing the geometric parameters. The results may have promising potential for the design of graphene-based optoelectronic devices.
