Abstract
The optical absorption of a composite photonic structure, namely monolayer molybdenum disulfide (MoS2)-covered Au grating, is theoretically investigated using a rigorous coupled-wave analysis algorithm. The enhancement of localized electromagnetic field due to surface plasmon polaritons supported by Au grating can be utilized to enhance the absorption of MoS2. The remarkable enhancement of absorption due to exciton transition can also be realized. When the period of grating is 600 nm, the local absorption of the monolayer MoS2 on Au grating is nearly 7 times higher than the intrinsic absorption due to B exciton transition. A further study reveals that the absorption properties of Au grating can be tailored by altering number of MoS2 layers, changing to a MoS2 nanoribbon array, and inserting a hafnium dioxide (HfO2) spacer. This work will contribute to the design of MoS2-based optical and optoelectronic devices.
