We report the growth and characterization of mid-wavelength infrared type-II InAs/InAs1−xSbx superlattice photodiodes on GaSb substrates grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition. At 150 K, the 50% cut-off wavelength is 5.0 μm, the dark current density is 3.3 × 10−4 A/cm2 under −20 mV bias, and the peak responsivity is 1.76 A/W corresponding to a quantum efficiency of 55% without anti-reflection coating. A specific detectivity of 1.2 × 1011 cm Hz1/2/W is achieved at 4.0 μm under −20 mV bias at 150 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.
