Abstract
We report the fabrication of a colloidal quantum dot based photodetector designed for the 3–5 μm mid infrared wavelength range incorporated with optical nano-antenna arrays to enhance the photocurrent. The fabricated arrays exhibit a resonant behavior dependent on the length of the nano-antenna rods, in good agreement with numerical simulation. The device exhibits a three-fold increase in the spectral photoresponse compared to a photodetector device without antennas, and the resonance is polarized parallel to the antenna orientation. We numerically estimate the device quantum efficiency and investigate its bias dependence.
