Abstract
The variation in spectral shape around the threshold frequencies between model and experimental responsivity spectra in heterojunction interfacial workfunction internal photoemission (HEIWIP) infrared detectors was investigated. This is attributed to the loss of photoexcited carriers, within the escape cone, prior to photoemission. The energy dependent transmission of excited carriers is incorporated to the existing photoemission model to show that emission around the threshold frequency is reduced considerably by quantum mechanical reflection of photoexcited carriers as observed in experimental results. In the new model, the photoemission of carriers become bias dependent.
