Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) simulations and fabrication of a Fabry-Perot cavity using photonic crystal arrays

In this thesis, Fabry-Perot (FP) cavity structures aimed at a 850nm wavelength are modeled and analyzed by Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) simulations, for the purpose of fabricating resonant cavity detectors and Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Lasers (VCSELs). The structures are based on squa...
