摘要
XBn or XBp barrier detectors exhibit diffusion-limited dark currents comparable with mercury cadmium telluride Rule-07 and high quantum efficiencies. In 2011, SemiConductor Devices (SCD) introduced "HOT Pelican D", a 640 x 512/15-mu m pitch InAsSb/AlSbAs XBn mid-wave infrared (MWIR) detector with a 4.2-mu m cut-off and an operating temperature of similar to 150 K. Its low power (similar to 3 W), high pixel operability (> 99.5%) and long mean time to failure make HOT Pelican D a highly reliable integrated detector-cooler product with a low size, weight and power. More recently, "HOT Hercules" was launched with a 1280 x 1024/15-mu m format and similar advantages. A 3-megapixel, 10-mu m pitch version ("HOT Blackbird") is currently completing development. For long-wave infrared applications, SCD's 640 x 512/15-mu m pitch "Pelican-D LW" XBp type II superlattice (T2SL) detector has a similar to 9.3-mu m cut-off wavelength. The detector contains InAs/GaSb and InAs/AlSb T2SLs, and is fabricated into focal plane array (FPA) detectors using standard production processes including hybridization to a digital silicon read-out integrated circuit (ROIC), glue underfill and substrate thinning. The ROIC has been designed so that the complete detector closely follows the interfaces of SCD's MWIR Pelican-D detector family. The Pelican-D LW FPA has a quantum efficiency of similar to 50%, and operates at 77 K with a pixel operability of > 99% and noise equivalent temperature difference of 13 mK at 30 Hz and F/2.7.
