  • Abstract
    Plasmonic THz photodetectors have been realized in this work, by implementing the active region of a 5 THz quantum well detector with an antenna-coupled microcavity array. Our results demonstrate a clear improvement in responsivity, polarization insensitivity and background limited performance.
