Characteristics of InGaAs quantum dot infrared photodetectors

A quantum dot infrared photodetector (QDIP) consisting of self-assembled InGaAs quantum dots has been demonstrated. Responsivity of 3.25 mA/W at 9.2 μm was obtained for nonpolarized incident light on the detector with a 45° angle facet at 60 K. The QDIPs exhibit some unique electro-optic characteris...

Zusammenfassung:A quantum dot infrared photodetector (QDIP) consisting of self-assembled InGaAs quantum dots has been demonstrated. Responsivity of 3.25 mA/W at 9.2 μm was obtained for nonpolarized incident light on the detector with a 45° angle facet at 60 K. The QDIPs exhibit some unique electro-optic characteristics such as a strong negative differential photoconductance effect and blueshift of the response peak wavelength.
