Broadband Enhancement of Mid‐Wave Infrared Absorption in a Multi‐Resonant Nanocrystal‐Based Device

Abstract: Light management is one of the main challenges to address when designing a sensor from a nanocrystal (NC) array. Indeed, the carrier diffusion length, limited by hopping mechanism, is much shorter than the absorption depth. Several types of resonators (plasmon, Bragg mirror, guided mode, Fabry–Perot cavity) have been proposed to reduce the volume where light is absorbed. All of them are inherently narrow bands, while imaging applications focus on broadband sensing. Here, an infrared sensor in the short and mid… Show more

“…It is also worth pointing out that the plasmonic resonance of the grating is expected to appear at n s •p with p = 350 nm the period of the grating, which is expected at ∼800 nm, outside of the spectral window of interest. The dispersion map (Figure S4) shows a very weak dependence of the resonance with the planar wavevector, which can be seen as an improvement compared to similar structures based on plasmonic gratings 30 or guided mode resonators. 16 To experimentally confirm the electric field localization within the gap, we used an infrared scanning near-field optical microscope (SNOM).…”

“…HgTe nanocrystals , (NCs) have reached a high level of maturity that enables their use in complex devices such as lasers, light-emitting diodes (LEDs), infrared (IR) sensors with carrier density light–matter control, and cameras. All of these results have been obtained with NCs absorbing in the near- and mid-wave infrared range. Because of the semimetal nature of HgTe, the absorption spectrum of NCs can be tuned up to the terahertz (THz) frequency range, which corresponds to the spectral range in which the NC properties remain underexplored .…”
