研究実績の概要 |
1. Finalize a publication (under review) about a wavelength-selective thermal emitter with wavelength tunability. The quality factor of the reported structure is one order above our previous work. The tunability property for such a structure is reported.
2. The properties of the proposed wavelength-selective thermal emitter are further improved using deep learning.
3. Finally, a new design for a hot carrier photodetector has been reported and verified experimentally. It is the first experimental result of a photodetector based on Tamm plasmons. These results are published in Nanoscale.

理由
Within this year, we have conducted the optimization, simulation, fabrication, and experiment processes. The device has a multilayer configuration. We demonstrated a pronounced resonance peak in emittance spectrum with a quality factor (Q-factor) as large as 1908. Wavelength tunability was realized by taking advantage of its thermo-optic effect. The device has been fabricatedusing RF sputtering. Upon heating, sharp peak is observed in the emittance spectrum with a large Q-factor around 780. The emission peak wavelength can be tuned within a range of 4.6 times the bandwidth of the emittance peak by adjusting the temperature. Both the Q-factor and tunabilities show larger values than that of any other tunable thermal emitters which have been reported.

今後の研究の推進方策 |
In the future, we consider to use deep learning techniques to design the optical behavior of a thermal emitter. Thus, many optical behaviors that is difficult to be achieved, such as arbitrarily design of double emission peaks and a minimum total thickness of a multilayer structure could be expected.
