Предложена принципиальная схема детектора электромагнитных волн среднего и дальнего ИК диапазона частот, основанная на использовании плоских массивов графеновых нанолент различной ширины и длины. Особенностью рассматриваемой схемы является использование для детектирования двух различных механизмов: возбуждение межзонных переходов, присущих графеновым лентам типа «armchair» в данной частотной области, и антенных резонансов поверхностных волн (плазмон-поляритонов). Показано, что совпадение двух резонансов, достигаемое путем соответствующего подбора геометрических параметров нанолент и настройки химического потенциала графена, позволяет существенно усилить сигнал, тем самым обеспечивая альтернативное решение проблемы низкой эффективности резонансных графеновых антенн. В работе предлагается возможный подход к проектированию и анализу таких детекторов, а также обсуждаются способы настройки обоих механизмов.

A concept of a middle- and far-infrared detector has been proposed. The detector is built as a planar collection of parallel graphene strips of different length and width. The feature of the detector scheme is the concurrent utilization of two different detection mechanisms: excitation in the given frequency range of low-frequency interband transitions inherent in armchair graphene strips and antenna resonances of strongly slowed-down surface waves (plasmon polaritons). It has been shown that matching these two resonances results in the essential detector signal amplification, thus providing an alternative way how to solve the problem of the low efficiency of resonant graphene antennas. An approach is proposed to analyze the design of such detectors, as well as to discuss the ways of tuning the both mechanisms.
