Optical field simulation of edge coupled terahertz quantum well photodetectors

By finite difference time domain (FDTD) simulation, we report on the optical field distribution within edge coupled terahertz quantum well photodetectors (THz QWPs) in detail. The coupling efficiency of THz QWP structures are studied from three aspects, including the electrode geometry, the position...
