Abstract
A photodetector especially useful for infrared detection. The photodetector includes a two-dimensional arrangement of resonator-photodiode units disposed along a detector surface for detecting radiation incident from above the detector surface and having a target frequency (v) that corresponds to a target wavelength (λ) in vacuum, wherein each resonator-photodiode unit has a photodiode semiconductor structure, which is sensitive to the target frequency (v), and a subwavelength dielectric resonator.
