Abstract
We present a new device based on the association of a quantum-well inf rared photodetector and an asymmetric quantum-well infrared modulator in a three-terminal monolithic structure. This device is shown to allo w the spectral analysis of an infrared signal. A large tunability and a constant responsivity make this device an ideal candidate for a soli d-state infrared spectrometer.
