The role of the metallic grating is to couple incident radiation into surface plasmon polariton (SPP) modes whose field overlaps the absorber region. Plasmon-enhanced infrared photodetectors have been recently demonstrated and are the subject of intensive research. Optical modelling of the three-dimensional detector structure with subwavelength metallic components is challenging, especially since its operation depends on evanescent wave coupling. Our modelling approach combines the 3D finite-difference time-domain method (FDTD) and the rigorous coupled wave analysis (RCWA) with a proposed adaptive data-point selection for calculation time reduction. We demonstrate that the 2DSHA-based detector supports SPPs in the Sommerfeld-Zenneck regime and waveguide modes that both enhance absorption in the active layer.}, type={Article}, title={Rigorous optical modelling of long-wavelength infrared photodetector with 2D subwavelength hole array in gold film}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/129528/PDF-MASTER/OPELRE_2024_32_1_A_Janaszek.pdf}, doi={10.24425/opelre.2024.148831}, keywords={plasmonics, infrared detector, enhanced absorption, surface plasmon polariton, Fano resonance, Sommerfeld-Zenneck wave}, }
