Abstract
Photocurrent enhancement in quantum dot (QD) infrared photodetector (QDIP) with an optical grating of subwavelength hole array in a thin metal film has been studied by calculating the transmission and diffraction of the infrared optical field through the grating and the light-matter interaction between the transmitted optical field and electrons confined in the QD. It is shown that due to the small aspect ratio of realistic QDs in QDIPs, the light diffraction due to the surface plasmon effect at the metal-semiconductor surface and the photonic subwavelength hole array structure is dominant in increasing the photocurrent.
