In the field of photonics it resulted in the appearance of new paradigms, including photonic crystals that exhibit photonic bandgap and represent an optical analog of semiconductors and metamaterials that have subwavelength features and may have almost arbitrary values of effective refractive index, including those below zero. In addition to that, a whole new field of plasmonics appeared, dedicated to the manipulation with evanescent, surface-bound electromagnetic waves and offering an opportunity to merge nanoelectronics with all-optical circuitry. In the field of infrared technologies MEMS and nanotechnologies ensured the appearance of a new generation of silicon-based thermal detectors with properties vastly surpassing the conventional thermal devices. However, another family of infrared detectors, photonic devices based on narrow-bandgap semiconductors, has traditionally been superior to thermal detectors. Literature about their micro and nanophotonic enhancement has been scarce and scattered through journals. This book offers the first systematic approach to numerous different MEMS and nanotechnology-based methods available for the improvement of photonic infrared detectors and points out to a path towards uncooled operation with the performance of cryogenically cooled devices. It is shown that a vast area for enhancement does exists and that photonic devices can readily keep their leading position in infrared detection. The various methods and approaches described in the book are also directly applicable to different other types of photodetectors like solar cells, often with little or no modification. 000711790 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed October 7, 2014). 000711790 650_0 $$aInfrared detectors. 000711790 650_0 $$aNanophotonics. 000711790 650_0 $$aMicroelectronics. 000711790 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783319096735 000711790 85280 $$bebk$$hSpringerLink 000711790 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-09674-2$$zOnline Access 000711790 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:711790$$pGLOBAL_SET 000711790 980__ $$aEBOOK 000711790 980__ $$aBIB 000711790 982__ $$aEbook 000711790 983__ $$aOnline 000711790 994__ $$a92$$bISE
