Single Plasmonic Structure Enhanced Dual-band Room Temperature Infrared Photodetection.

ABSTRACT: Dual-band photodetection in mid- and near-wave infrared spectral bands is of scientific interest and technological importance. Most of the state-of-the-art mid-infrared photodetectors normally operate at low temperature and/or suffer from toxicity and high cost due to limitations of material properties and device structures. The capability of surface plasmons in confining electromagnetic waves into extremely small volume provides an opportunity for improving the performance for room temperature operation. Here, we report an n-InAsSb/n-GaSb heterostructure photodiode integrated with plasmonic two-dimensional subwavelength hole array (2DSHA) for room temperature two band photodetection. We demonstrate that with a properly designed 2DSHA, room temperature detectivities of the heterostructure
