Abstract
The operation of a metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) by a surface plasmon (SP) signal was demonstrated. The SP detector, composed of a gold/silicon Schottky diode with a nano-slit grating, was monolithically integrated with the MOSFETs on a silicon substrate. SP generation by the nano-slit gating (slit width of 100 nm, slit pitch of 440 nm, and slit depth of 300 nm) was confirmed by analytical calculations based on the finite-difference timedomain method. The SP detector operated at a photon energy (0.80 eV) that was below the bandgap energy of silicon (1.1 eV), with responsivity of 24 nA/mW and a dark current of 1.7 nA under reverse bias of 5.0 V. The photocurrent generated by the SP detector controlled the drain current of a monolithically integrated MOSFET.
