Arrays of Silicon P-i-N Nanowires for Antenna-enhanced and Polarisation Sensitive Detection of Light

A novel antenna effect is demonstrated in arrays of 500, 200 and 100 silicon nanowires embedded in silicon dioxide. The gratings are analyzed using spectral and polarisation resolved photocurrent microscopy. Resonant enhancements in the electric field and photocurrent response are observed at mult...
