Description

The goal of the present work is to develop high performance long-wave infrared (LWIR) detectors based on III-V type-II superlattice (T2SL) technology by realistic models of device structures incorporating epitaxial growth parameters. IntelliEPI IR will develop growth methodology for characterization and control of nonidealities impacting SRH dark current and lifetime. The GaSb-based epi materials will be grown by IntelliEPI IR with multi-wafer production molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) reactors. The T2SL detector design will be developed in consultation with the infrared detector group at JPL.
