ABSTRACT:
Efficiency of a photoelectric conversion device is increased by inducing a surface plasmon also on a metallic electrode located on the side of the device where light is incident. Incident He-Ne laser light is refracted by a semicylindrical lens and is incident on a magnesium fluoride layer and an Al electrode. The surface plasmon is absorbed by a copper phthalocyanine layer to give a photoelectric current between the Al electrode and an Ag electrode.
