Abstract

The present invention discloses a metal nano optical antenna monolithically integrated on a photoelectric detector. The antenna comprises a covering layer with a low refractive index, a metal nano sphere array and a detector substrate in order from top to bottom. The low refractive index of the covering layer with the low refractive index is in a range of 1.3-2.3, the diameter of each metal nano sphere is 300-500 nanometers, and an arrangement cycle is 700-900 nanometers. The metal nano optical antenna structure can improve the optical absorption properties of the detector, can enhance the response of the detector to an incident light and can improve quantum efficiency through light scattering and surface local field enhancement effect, the preparation process is simple, and the preparation cost is low.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of photodetectors, in particular to a metal nano-optical antenna monolithically integrated on a photodetector substrate. Background technique [0002] Optical Antenna is a device that can effectively couple the energy radiated in free space to the sub-wavelength scale. Metal nano-optical antennas are generally metal / dielectric structures composed of nano-scale metal particles (spherical, triangular, rod-like and other shapes). The metal surface forms a field enhancement, and at the gap of the antenna, the electric field is greatly enhanced due to the coupling effect. In recent years, nano-optical antennas have attracted the attention of many researchers, showing potential application prospects in many fields such as nano-optical imaging, near-field optical microscope probes, data storage, solar cells, and new light sources. [0003] Chi-Yang Chang et al. found that a 100-nanometer-thick Ag metal film was deposited o...
