Analysis of crosstalk in HgCdTe p-on-n heterojunction photovoltaic infrared sensing arrays

Abstract: In this paper, an experimental and theoretical study is carried out of crosstalk between nearest-neighbor devices within a backside-illuminated linear HgCdTe photovoltaic infrared sensing array. The dominant form of crosstalk that occurs in high performance photovoltaic arrays is associated with photogenerated minority carriers that diffuse laterally between adjacent devices within the array. To measure crosstalk, a scanning laser microscope is used to obtain a spatial map of spot-scan photoresponse at a tempe… Show more

“…Finally, the photoresponse curve from pixel 2 is obtained. At the same time, crosstalk, which is defined as the pixel 1 response divided by the pixel 2 response as a percentage, 9 can be evaluated by computing the photocurrent at the contacts. Figures 2 and 3 show the simulated response and crosstalk characteristics of the photodetectors with 47.2-lm-, 52.2-lm-, and 57.2-lm-thick n-type InSb layers using the configurations shown in Fig.…”

“…Generally speaking, the Electronic-Crosstalk is dominant in photosensitive array. Therefore, when crosstalk is measured the overall crosstalk is obtained [9,10] . To accurately measure and calculate the optic-crosstalk, a small optic-spot within the spot size of 2 μm need to be used.…”

“…With known mobility of minority carriers, this knowledge also permits evaluation of the lifetime of excess carriers in MCT, which is often hard to measure because of its small value. Finally, the length l d is generally regarded as a key parameter that defines the crosstalk value of FPA detectors [5][6][7][8][9].…”
