Plasmonic field confinement for separate absorption-multiplication in InGaAs nanopillar avalanche photodiodes
Avalanche photodiodes (APDs) are essential components in quantum key distribution systems and active imaging systems requiring both ultrafast response time to measure photon time of flight and high gain to detect low photon flux. The internal gain of an APD can improve system signal-to-noise ratio (...
