Abstract
We report on a low-bias InAs–InGaAs quantum-dot (QD) infrared photodetector (QDIP) with operating temperature of 150 K. Longwave-infrared (LWIR) detection at the peak wavelength of 11.7 μm was achieved. Peak specific photodetectivity D ∗ of 1.7 × 10 9 and 9.0 × 10 7 cm Hz 1/2/W were obtained at the operating temperature T of 78 K and 150 K, respectively. A large photoresponsivity of 8.3 A/W and high photoconductive gain of 1100 were demonstrated at a low-bias voltage of V = 0.5 V at T = 150 K. The low-bias and high-temperature performance demonstration based on InAs–GaAs material systems indicates that the QDIP technology is promising for LWIR sensing and imaging.
