Contribution of Structure and Morphology of Design Constituents to Performance Improvement of Multilayer Polaritonic Photodetector

Abstract

This paper is devoted to estimate contribution of structure and morphology of the individual design constituents to performance improvement of multilayer polaritonic photodetector (optochemical sensor). Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) in the surface barrier heterostructure (SBH) with the corrugated interface is used as the basic principle underlying the device operation. The demonstration of correlation of the contribution with the enhanced SBH features was performed through the adequate characterization tool.
