Abstract

A multi-band focal plane array sensitive in near-infrared (near-IR) and mid-wavelength infrared (MWIR) is been developed by monolithically integrating a near-infrared (1–1.5μm) p–i–n photodiode with a mid-infrared (3–5μm) QWIP. This multiband detector involves both intersubband and interband transitions in III–V semiconductor layer structures. Each detector stack absorbs photons within the specified wavelength band, while allowing the transmission of photons in other spectral bands, thus efficiently permitting multiband detection. Monolithically grown material characterization data and individual detector test results ensure the high quality of material suitable for near-infrared/QWIP dual-band focal plane array.
