“…A practical approach to overcome these challenges is the careful selection of the detector material [ 22 , 23 ], which can include high-temperature superconductors (HTSC) [ 24 , 25 , 26 ]. The implementation of increasingly complex heterostructures has enabled the development of ultra-sensitive detectors for longer wavelengths and lower photon energies [ 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 ]. Quantum sensitivity has also been achieved for radiofrequency signals [ 39 , 40 ].…”

It is known that the dielectric layer (resonator) located behind the conducting plate of the bolometer system can significantly increase its sensitivity near the resonance frequencies. In this paper, the possibility of receiving broadband electromagnetic signals in a multilayer bolometric meta-material made of alternating conducting (e.g., silicon semiconductor) and dielectric layers is demonstrated both experimentally and numerically. It is shown that such a multilayer structure acts as a lattice of resonators and can significantly increase the width of the frequency band of efficient electromagnetic energy absorption. The parameters of the dielectric and semiconductor layers determine the frequency bands. Numerical modeling of the effect has been carried out under the conditions of our experiment. The numerical results show acceptable qualitative agreement with the experimental data. This study develops the previously proposed technique of resonant absorption of electromagnetic signals in bolometric structures.

“…The bolometric detection technique is gaining popularity. The basis of this popularity is the ability to “adjust” the spectrum of the electronic ensemble interacting with radiation to certain tasks and frequency ranges [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 ]. Various sensors are being developed for a variety of frequency ranges, from gigahertz to infrared.…”

We examine the effect of resonant absorption of electromagnetic signals in a silicon semiconductor plasma layer when the dielectric plate is placed behind it both experimentally and numerically. It is shown that such plate acts as a dielectric resonator and can significantly increase the electromagnetic energy absorption in the semiconductor for certain frequencies determined by the dielectric plate parameters. Numerical modelling of the effect is performed under the conditions of conducted experiment. The numerical results are found to be in qualitative agreement with experimental ones. This study confirms the proposed earlier method of increasing the efficiency of bolometric-type detectors of electromagnetic radiation.

“…The layered structure of different metal structures is the primary requirement to trap infrared light and generate the perfect absorption [21,22] and reflectance [23]. The perfect absorption/reflectance-based multilayer device can be useful for designing biosensor structures [24]. To achieve the perfect absorption/reflectance, the dimension and shape of the resonator structure play a major role in the device's overall performance [25][26][27][28].…”

We have presented the borophene based refractive index sensor for the infrared frequency spectrum of 188 to 250 THz (1.2–1.6 µm) range. The proposed structure was formed by using the Silver-borophene-silica-Ag layered structure. The behaviour of the different analyte (with a different refractive index) material is numerically calculated by placing it on the top of the structure. The behaviour of the structure is identified in terms of absorption, reflectance, physical parameter variation, and oblique angle incident conditions. The presented results provide the basic idea of selecting optimized structure dimensions to get the specific resonating response. This sensor offers the Figure of Merit (FOM) of 444 RIU−1 with high sensitivity of 660 THz/RIU (4471 nm/RIU). The refractive index sensor also provides wide-angle stability for (0° to 80°) for the wide frequency range (239 to 245 THz and 207 to 209 THz). This sensor is developed on the silver metal layer (not required to separate borophene from its origin metal deposition process) and easily fabricated using standard boron fabrication and layered deposition techniques. The results of the proposed structure make it possible to design a basic biosensor structure. This device is also applicable for various THz and biomedical applications.
