Abstract
A kind of high-contrast grating (HCG) reflector for beam focusing has been proposed. We design a planar grating structure with a parabolic surface and numerical simulations using a finite different time domain (FDTD) method to verify that the structure has the capability of focusing both transverse-magnetic (TM) and transverse-electric (TE) polarized lights. Finally, we expand the design structure into a three-dimensional (3D) case. Numerical results demonstrate that the power intensities at the focal point are all greater than 8.5 dB compared with incident intensity, which means the structure has a better focusing effect. Further analysis of incident wavelength sensitivity (1.55, 1.79 and 2 μm) reveals that the proposed structure has a wide range of working wavelength.
