Surface plasmon induced direct detection of long wavelength photons

The detection of terahertz and millimeter waves has many applications, but there are still limitations in their technical performance. Here, Tong et al. demonstrate the direct detection of long-wavelength radiation through surface plasmon excitation and a corresponding improvement in detection perfo...
