“…The most popular methods include the atomistic pseudopotential approach [62], eight-band k.p analysis [21,59,60,63] based on the valance force field method and numerical simulations based on finite volume methods [64,65]. Various groups around the world have successfully demonstrated good-quality infrared imaging [66][67][68][69][70] with QDIP-based FPAs. There are excellent articles covering the physics of QDIPs [61,71,72] and also that discuss the fundamental advantages and device characteristics as well as the stateof-the-art reviews [29,45,69,73,74].…”
