Abstract
A photodetector includes a substrate, a material layer, a first electrode made of a metal, a core, a second electrode and a light absorption layer made of graphene. The first electrode, the core, and the material layer constitute a hybrid plasmonic waveguide, and the light absorption layer is disposed thereon. Light guided in the hybrid plasmonic waveguide is absorbed by the light absorption layer, photoelectrically converted by the PTE effect, and extracted as an electric signal from the first electrode and the second electrode.
