S. Kim et al., GROWTH AND CHARACTERIZATION OF INGAAS INGAP QUANTUM DOTS FOR MIDINFRARED PHOTOCONDUCTIVE DETECTOR/, Applied physics letters, 73(7), 1998, pp. 963-965
We report InGaAs quantum dot intersubband infrared photodetectors grow
n by low-pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition on semi-insul
ating GaAs substrates. The optimum growth conditions were studied to o
btain uniform InGaAs quantum dots constructed in an InGaP matrix. Norm
al incidence photoconductivity was observed at a peak wavelength of 5.
5 mu m with a high responsivity of 130 mA/W and a detectivity of 4.74x
10(7) cm H-1/2/W at 77 K. (C) 1998 American Institute of Physics.
