Abstract

To date, Bound States in the Continuum (BICs) with infinite quality (Q) factor have been observed in vertically symmetric photonic crystal slabs (PCS) sandwiched from top and bottom by low refractive index material. Such configurations are problematic in real life realization. Thus, we present numerical analysis of vertically nonsymmetric PCS, that exhibits BICs when specific conditions are met. We demonstrate that ~10% refractive index contrast between PCS and substrate enables BICs, which is achievable by all-semiconductor configurations. We also present Q-factor analysis of finite size semiconductor-based electrically driven devices exploiting BICs and configurations integrated with metals.
