Some 50 years ago discussions of plasmonics in semiconductors lead to many new concepts such as travelling domain structures with applications leading even to logic systems. Now plasmonics of submicron wires of Ag and graphene bring new device concepts for the fabrication of compact THz sources and optical focusing of the beat signal into the active area. Here as an experimental example such new opportunities are involved with compact THz sources based on optical laser mixing. They include resonant plasmonic structures at THz and optical frequencies to locally enhance the electromagnetic fields at THz as well as optical frequencies by the combination of semiconductor-graphene plasmons respectively by the semiconductor-metal-nanostructure plasmons. Of particular interest is the usage of graphene, which is optically transmitting and which is either a semimetal or can be transformed into a semiconductor by reducing the width of its strips to about 30 nm, opening a band gap in the meV to tens of the meV range. A successful experimental structure for continuous-wave THz photomixing is fabricated using 1D and 2D nanocontacts either on low-temperature-grown (LTG) GaAs or on nitrogen ion-implanted (N+i) GaAs and graphene sheets. The overlaying 1D and 2D nanocontacts were formed by silver nanowires with a diameter of 60 or 120 nm. They can handle currents of >10 and >30 mA, respectively, without electromigration enabling reliably high photocurrents and field enhancement at THz frequencies by plasmonic effects. The nanomaterial structurization in connection with present-day plasmonic applications is now to be discussed in a similar manner as past opportunities with semiconductor plasmonics.
