摘要
An InAs-InGaAs quantum dot (QD) longwave infrared ( LWIR) photodetector (QDIP) with a peak wavelength of 8.2 mu m is presented. The QDIP has modulation-doped QD active layers. At 77 K, the QDIP showed high photoresponsivities of 5.4 A W-1 and 3.6 A W-1 at biases of -0.8 V and 0.6 V, respectively. A peak photodetectivity of 7.8 x 10(9) cm Hz(1/2) W-1 was obtained at 77 K in an IR detector compatible package.
