Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Hybrid devices consisting of silicon photonic crystal cavities and carbon nanotubes were characterized. Various cavity designs and coupling methods were considered, and Raman enhancements were quantified. Enhancement of Raman scattering from graphene was also investigated, as the Raman frequencies are similar. Enhancement of Raman scattering from monolayer graphene on two-dimensional photonic crystals using double resonances were demonstrated, where we obtain an enhancement of the Raman intensity by a factor of 60 compared to that on un-patterned silicon substrates. The double resonances originate from simultaneous enhancements by a localized guided mode and a cavity mode, and they can be tuned to Raman scattering by tuning the hole diameter and lattice constant of the photonic crystal.
