Abstract
Room temperature surface-illuminated InAsxP1-x-ySby/InAs photodiodes with an external quantum efficiency as high as 50–86% in a 1.83–3.53 µm wavelength range have been fabricated for the first time. Lattice matched heterostructures with a wide energy gap InAsPSb cap layer were grown on the InAs substrate using the liquid phase epitaxy technique. According to temperature dependence measurements for a 1 mm diameter photodiode, peak responsivities of 1.83–2.5 A/W have been realized in a temperature range of 296 to 200 K. The Johnson noise limited room temperature detectivities D* are deduced to be 1\\endash6 ×109 cm·Hz1/2/W at zero bias. It is demonstrated that the only loss of external quantum efficiency is from the reflection of the entrance face.
