Design and Optimization of Novel Graphene Photodetectors
In the first part of the thesis you will read up on the current graphene photodetector (PD) theory. Based on the gained knowledge new PD designs will be developed and optimized to enhance the device efficiency. With the help of numeric simulations the proposed design can then be analyzed and the performance of the new design will be compared to prior results. If time allows the simulation results will be compared with real world fabricated devices. Lastly, the work will be concluded in a report where all the important results are documented. Show details
