摘要:

石墨烯在红外和太赫兹中的光学特性可以通过将石墨烯图案化为具有亚波长特征尺寸的周期性超材料来定制和增强。在这里,我们展示了石墨烯纳米阵列中的偏振敏感和门可调光电探测。利用的长寿命的混合等离子体声子模式的电子密度振荡和基板(SiO2)的表面极性声子的耦合激发。它们的激发由s-极化导致的共振光电流的数量级大于p-极化,激发电子-空穴对观察到的光电流。等离子体探测器表现出光致温度增加高达四倍的可比2D石墨烯探测器。此外,由于光激发的混合等离子体声子和电子的衰变通道的差异,光电流符号在最新的纳米阵列中变得偏振敏感。我们的工作提供了一个路径的光敏和频率选择性光电探测器的基础上石墨烯的等离子体激元激发。

英文摘要:

Graphene's optical properties in the infrared and terahertz can be tailored and enhanced by patterning graphene into periodic metamaterials with sub-wavelength feature sizes. Here we demonstrate polarization sensitive and gate tunable photodetection in graphene nanoribbon arrays. The long-lived hybrid plasmon-phonon modes utilized are coupled excitations of electron density oscillations and substrate (SiO2) surface polar phonons. Their excitation by s-polarization leads to an in-resonance photocurrent an order of magnitude larger than the photocurrent observed for p-polarization, which excites electron-hole pairs. The plasmonic detectors exhibit photoinduced temperature increases up to four times as large as comparable 2D graphene detectors. Moreover, the photocurrent sign becomes polarization sensitive in the narrowest nanoribbon arrays due to differences in decay channels for photoexcited hybrid plasmon-phonons and electrons. Our work provides a path to light sensitive and frequency selective photodetectors based on graphene's plasmonic excitations.
