  • Abstract
    We developed a Si nano-photodiode with a surface plasmon (SP) antenna for a SiON waveguide-integrated structure. We showed that interfacial periodic nano-scale metal-semiconductor-metal Schottky electrodes function as an SP optical antenna and also as an optical coupler between a SiON waveguide and a very thin Si-absorption layer.
