研究目的
To design and optimize practical p-n-p Ge/Ge1?xSnx/Ge heterojunction phototransistors (HPTs) for efficient infrared detection, extending the photodetection range from near-infrared to mid-infrared.
研究成果
The study demonstrates that optimized p-n-p Ge1?xSnx HPTs can achieve high-performance photodetection in the infrared region, with current gain, SNR, and optical responsivity strongly dependent on structural parameters and Sn content. A Sn content of 6%–9% maximizes optical responsivity, and the SNR is improved in the high-frequency region with Sn introduction. These findings provide guidelines for designing efficient infrared HPTs.
研究不足
The study is theoretical, and practical implementation may face challenges such as material quality, doping concentration limits, and interface defects. The performance of HPTs is also dependent on the precise control of Sn composition and structural parameters.
