Area of Science:

  • Optoelectronics
  • Nanophotonics
  • Infrared Technology

Background:

  • Surface plasmon-polaritons are of increasing interest due to strong near-field enhancement at metal-dielectric interfaces.
  • Existing infrared imaging technologies face limitations in sensitivity and spectral capabilities.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To demonstrate the first monolithically integrated plasmonic focal plane array (FPA) in the mid-infrared region.
  • To enhance infrared imaging performance using plasmonic effects.

Main Methods:

  • Integration of a metal with a two-dimensional hole array on an intersubband quantum-dots-in-a-well (DWELL) heterostructure FPA.
  • Coupling the DWELL FPA to a read-out integrated circuit.
  • Utilizing surface plasmon-polaritons for enhanced light-matter interaction.

Main Results:

  • Achieved excellent infrared imagery with a monolithically integrated plasmonic FPA.
  • Observed over a 160% increase in the signal-to-noise ratio (V(s)/V(n)) of the DWELL camera.
  • Demonstrated resonant enhancement at a wavelength of 6.1 μm.

Conclusions:

  • This work presents a significant advancement in mid-infrared plasmonic imaging.
  • The developed technology enables a new generation of pixel-level spectropolarimetric imagers.
  • Future applications include bio-inspired infrared sensors with enhanced detectivity and higher operating temperatures.
