摘要: Binary optics processing methods were applied to a silicon substrate generate an array of small pillars in order enhance transmission. The volume fraction the was chosen simulate single homogeneous antireflection layer, and pillar height targeted be quarter-wave thickness. A mask generated, using graphics computer-aided design system; reactive-ion etching used pillars. An improvement long-wavelength infrared transmission is observed, with diffraction scattering dominating at shorter wavelengths.
