摘要
A resonant-cavity-enhanced (RCE) PIN photodetector has high bandwidth and high sensitivity compared with traditional PIN photodetectors. In this paper, the structure of a RCE GaInAsSb/GaSb photodetector has been designed so that the light is incident from the substrate. The top reflector for this structure is made of 9.5-15.5 periods of InAs/GaSb quarter wave stacks (QWS) and the bottom reflector is composed of three periods of SiO2/Si QWS. An antireflection coating with more than 99% transmissivity is deposited on the substrate surface. A simulation shows that the quantum efficiency could be more than 90% at the operating wavelength 2.4 mum. The device has two spectral response peaks, which could make the device function as a double-colour detector.
