Optimization of the optical coupling in nanowire-based integrated photonic platforms by FDTD simulation

Optimization of the optical coupling in nanowire-based integrated photonic platforms by FDTD simulation

The optimized design of a photonic platform based on a nanowire light emitting diode (LED) and a nanowire photodetector connected with a waveguide is proposed. The light coupling efficiency from the LED to the detector is optimized as a function of the geometrical parameters of the system using the...
