  • Abstract
    We propose and analyze the bandwidth and efficiency issues of surface-plasmon-resonance (SPR) enhanced metal-semiconductor-metal traveling-wave photodetectors. With strong field confinement near the nano-sized metal fingers, SPR-effect is found to greatly enhance the device´s highspeed performance.
