| 内容記述 | The fabrication and application of metal-barrier-metal tunneling junctions for radiative interactions are discussed. Particular attention is given to the photolithographic fabrication of small area devices and the coupling to such devices via surface plasmon waves which play an important role at infrared and optical frequencies. It has been shown that the junction electron tunneling currents can be strongly coupled to surface plasmon junction modes, and spontaneous and stimulated emission of the latter are possible as well as nonlinear interactions. Finally, results demonstrating the photo-excitation of electrons with subsequent tunneling induced by ultraviolet radiation are presented. It is estimated that quantum efficiencies of the order of 5% and higher are possible in the ultraviolet region. |
