Abstract
Transparent electrodes implemented on semiconductors are essential components of optoelectronic devices, however, overcoming Fresnel limit and approaching perfect optical transmission together with high electrical conductivity are still a challenge. In this talk, by numerical simulations, we demonstrate a simple polarization-independent mechanism of infrared light funneling through subwavelength one-dimensional metal grating electrode integrated with monolithic high-contrast grating (MHCG). We show optical transmission of 97% through the electrode implemented at the interface between air and high refractive index semiconductor for radiation from broad infrared spectrum and revealing excellent electrical properties determined by sheet resistance below 1 Ohm/Sq.
