摘要
Near-infrared detection is reported for a double-barrier quantum-well infrared photodetector based on a 30-Angstrom GaAs1-yNy (yapproximate to0.01) quantum well. The growth procedure using plasma-assisted molecular-beam epitaxy is described. The as-grown sample exhibits a detection wavelength of 1.64 mum at 25 K. The detection peak strengthens and redshifts to 1.67 mum following rapid thermal annealing at 850 degreesC for 30 s. The detection peak position is consistent with the calculated band structure based on the band-anticrossing model for nitrogen incorporation into GaAs. (C) 2003 American Institute of Physics.
