研究目的
Investigating the advances in III-V semiconductor infrared absorbers and detectors, including theoretical comparisons and experimental demonstrations of higher operating temperatures.
研究成果
The InAs/InAsSb type-II superlattice is highly effective for MWIR applications due to long minority carrier lifetimes and compatibility with nBn architecture, enabling higher operating temperatures than InSb. Theoretical comparisons show advantages of different materials for various wavelength ranges.
研究不足
The calculations are semi-quantitative due to assumptions of sharp interfaces and potential inaccuracies in band structure parameters; actual grown superlattices may have cross-incorporation issues affecting results.
