Abstract

Two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides materials play a pivotal role in photonics. Their placement in photonic crystals was proved effective in enhancing the absorption for a wide range of applications. In this paper, we study the symmetric and asymmetric defective photonic crystals (DPC) whose defects are formed by DMD where M indicates the WS₂ or WSe₂ monolayer and D represents SiO₂ layer. The present study investigates the effects of the position of the defect layer in DPC on the absorption, FWHM, quality factor, number, and wavelength of the defect modes in both symmetric and asymmetric structures. We show that the amount of the absorption of defect modes in the case of WSe₂ and WS₂ is above 93% and 80% in symmetric and asymmetric structures, respectively. Further, in symmetric structures, FWHM of WS₂ is broader than that of WSe₂; in asymmetric structures, on the other hand, FWHM of WSe₂ is wider than that of WS₂. Also, Photonic band gap does not depend on the thickness of the defect layer, the symmetry or asymmetry of the structure, periodicity of the top and bottom defect layer of DMD. The proposed structures are likely to attract the attentions to their applications in photoelectric detectors, absorbent filters, solar cells, and the like.
