“…Finally, we would like to stress that the suggested in-plane polarimeter can be realized by only one step of electron-beam lithography, while simple proof-of-concept experiments can be performed by placing out-coupling gratings along the six in-plane propagation directions, with the associated scattered light being a measure of the coupling efficiencies. Moreover, we foresee the possibility of a compact circuitry with built-in plasmonic detectors that are integrated into spatially-confined waveguides [33,34].…”

The state of polarization (SOP) is an inherent property of the vectorial nature of light and a crucial parameter in a wide range of remote sensing applications. Nevertheless, the SOP is rather cumbersome to probe experimentally, as conventional detectors only respond to the intensity of the light, hence loosing the phase information between orthogonal vector components. In this work, we propose a new type of polarimeter that is compact and well-suited for in-plane optical circuitry, while allowing for immediate determination of the SOP through simultaneous retrieval of the associated Stokes parameters. The polarimeter is based on plasmonic phase-gradient birefringent metasurfaces that facilitate normal incident light to launch in-plane photonic waveguide modes propagating in six predefined directions with the coupling efficiencies providing a direct measure of the incident SOP. The functionality and accuracy of the polarimeter, which essentially is an all-polarization sensitive waveguide metacoupler, is confirmed through full-wave simulations at the operation wavelength of 1.55 µm. * alp@iti.sdu.dk 1 arXiv:1607.02013v1 [physics.optics]

With unique ability to concentrate and manipulate light at nanoscale, surface plasmon resonance technologies create additional opportunities for fabricating superintegration photodetectors with desirable functionalities. To gain an insight into the state-of-the-art of plasmonic photodetectors, recent advances in novel devices as well as potential building blocks are presented herein. The article focuses particularly on understanding the enhancement mechanism of different architectures such as nanoparticles, gratings, waveguides, antennas, and microcavities. Meanwhile, challenges and potential design schemes are proposed in this inspiring field.
