研究目的
To propose and experimentally demonstrate a compact, low-cost color sensor incorporating monolithically integrated nanoscale thickness plasmonic antennas that are fabricated in the same technological process with photodetector matrix.
研究成果
The utilization of plasmonic metasurfaces as color filters instead of conventional pigments permits planarization of the pixel design and avoids the necessity of additional alignment steps. It also enables scaling down the overall dimensions of the sensor to below 1 μm. The photodetectors demonstrated an ability to distinguish between different spectral bands and exhibited intrinsic polarization sensitivity. These sensors can be used as a planar nanoscale alternative to conventional color pixels in future high-resolution consumer or scientific cameras.
研究不足
The responsivity of the cyan and yellow channels was lower compared to the magenta channel, possibly due to contamination at the metal–semiconductor interface. The polarization selectivity and the need for precise fabrication techniques may also limit the practical application of these sensors.
