Abstract
We demonstrate a unique photoconductive design for terahertz (THz) detection based on a perfectly absorbing, all-dielectric metasurface. Our design exploits Mie resonances in electrically connected cubic resonators fabricated in low-temperature grown (LT) GaAs. Experimentally, the detector achieves very high contrast between ON/OFF conductivity states (107) whilst also requiring extremely low optical power for optimal operation (100 muW). We find that the Mie resonances dissipate sufficiently fast and maintain the detection bandwidth up to 3 THz.
