“…[10,30,69] Therefore, the various metallic nanostructures including nanodots, antennas, metamaterials, islands, plasmonic crystals, grating, and waveguide are employed to excite SP for an improved responsivity. [6,22,24,51,57,[110][111][112][113][114][115][116][117][118][119][120][121][122][123][124][125][126][127] In general, the unbiased responsivities of the hot carrier photodetectors working at the LW-NIR are on the order of mA/W, much lower than that of the commercially available near-infrared photodetectors, e.g., indium arsenide (InAs), gallium arsenide (GaAs), and mercury cadmium telluride (HgCdTe). [112] To further improve the efficiency of hot carrier photodetectors, more works can be interesting from the following perspectives.…”
