| Abstract: | Properties of surface plasmon polaritons can be exploited for the miniaturisation of photonic circuits below the optical wavelength scale. Smaller and more sensitive photodetectors can be made by using sub-wavelength semiconductor elements such as germanium or silicon nanowires in combination with nanometer-scale antennas. The proposed nanowire photodetector enables on-chip optical sensing applications with increased sensitivity and reduced size. |
