We report the demonstration of a two-color infrared focal plane array based on a voltage-tunable quantum dots-in-well ͑DWELL͒ design. The active region consists of multiple layers of InAs quantum dots in an In 0.15 Ga 0.85 As quantum well. Spectral response measurements yielded a peak at 5.5 m for lower biases and at 8-10 m for higher biases. Using calibrated blackbody measurements, the midwavelength and long wavelength specific detectivity ͑D * ͒ were estimated to be 7.1ϫ 10 10 cm Hz 1/2 /W͑V b = 1.0 V͒ and 2.6ϫ 10 10 cm Hz 1/2 /W͑V b = 2.6 V͒ at 78 K, respectively. This material was processed into a 320ϫ 256 array and integrated with an Indigo 9705 readout chip and thermal imaging was achieved at 80 K.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
