AB  - Plasmon based field effect transistors (FETs) can be used to convert energy 
      induced by incident optical radiation to electrical energy. Plasmonic FETs can 
      efficiently detect incident light and amplify it by coupling to resonant 
      plasmonic modes thus improving selectivity and signal to noise ratio. The 
      spectral responses can be tailored both through optimization of nanostructure 
      geometry as well as constitutive materials. In this paper, we studied various 
      plasmonic nanostructures using gold for a wideband spectral response from visible 
      to near-infrared. We show, using empirical data and simulation results, that 
      detection loss exponentially increases as the volume of metal nanostructure 
      increases and also a limited spectral response is possible using gold 
      nanostructures in a plasmon to electric conversion device. Finally, we 
      demonstrate a plasmon FET that offers a broadband spectral response from visible 
      to telecommunication wavelengths.
