Book Antimony based Type II Superlattice Infrared Photodetectors on Indium arsenide Substrates

Download or read book Antimony based Type II Superlattice Infrared Photodetectors on Indium arsenide Substrates written by Daniel Y. Zuo and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The wide variety of applications for mid- and far-infrared detection has spurred the study of cutting-edge technologies for use in the next genera- tion of detectors in place of the current systems, such as mercury cadmium telluride. While type-II superlattices over a number of advantages in design and material quality, theoretical predictions of their high performance have yet to be realized. This work concentrates on novel designs, fabrication, and characterization of type-II superlattice infrared detectors. In this work we present the first InAs/GaSb type-II superlattice photode- tectors grown on an InAs substrate via metal-organic chemical vapor depo- sition. The design and fabrication of the devices are detailed, along with several characterization processes, including low-temperature electron beam induced current (EBIC) to study structural defects. Through this work, the optical absorption of the undoped substrate was shown to be significantly lower than that of GaSb. The detectors have a cutoff wavelength (50% re- sponsivity) of 9.5 um at 78 K. Their R0A values are on the order of 10^-2 Ohm*cm2. The typical peak responsivity is 1.9 A/W, and the devices have a peak detectivity of 6.8 * 10^9 cm*Hz^1/2 /W at 78 K.

Book Antimonide based Infrared Detectors

Download or read book Antimonide based Infrared Detectors written by Antoni Rogalski and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Among the many materials investigated in the infrared (IR) field, narrow-gap semiconductors are the most important in IR photon detector family. Although the first widely used narrow-gap materials were lead salts (during the 1950s, IR detectors were built using single-element-cooled PbS and PbSe photoconductive detectors, primary for anti-missile seekers), this semiconductor family was not well distinguished. This situation seems to have resulted from two reasons: the preparation process of lead salt photoconductive polycrystalline detectors was not well understood and could only be reproduced with well-tried recipes; and the theory of narrow-gap semiconductor bandgap structure was not well known for correct interpretation of the measured transport and photoelectrical properties of these materials"--

Book 2D Materials for Infrared and Terahertz Detectors

Download or read book 2D Materials for Infrared and Terahertz Detectors written by Antoni Rogalski and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-10-26 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2D Materials for Infrared and Terahertz Detectors provides an overview of the performance of emerging detector materials, while also offering, for the first time, a comparison with traditional materials used in the fabrication of infrared and terahertz detectors. Since the discovery of graphene, its applications to electronic and optoelectronic devices have been intensively researched. The extraordinary electronic and optical properties allow graphene and other 2D materials to be promising candidates for infrared (IR) and terahertz (THz) photodetectors, and yet it appears that the development of new detectors using these materials is still secondary to those using traditional materials. This book explores this phenomenon, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of using 2D materials. Special attention is directed toward the identification of the most-effective hybrid 2D materials in infrared and terahertz detectors, as well as future trends. Written by one of the world’s leading researchers in the field of IR optoelectronics, this book will be a must-read for researchers and graduate students in photodetectors and related fields. Features • Offers a comprehensive overview of the different types of 2D materials used in fabrication of IR and THz detectors, and includes their advantages/disadvantages • The first book to compare new detectors to a wide family of common, commercially available detectors that use traditional materials.

Book Infrared Thermography Recent Advances and Future Trends

Download or read book Infrared Thermography Recent Advances and Future Trends written by Carosena Meola and published by Bentham Science Publishers. This book was released on 2012-08-03 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Infrared thermography (IRT) is a non-contact, non-invasive methodology which allows for detection of thermal energy that is radiated from objects in the infrared band of the electromagnetic spectrum, for conversion of such energy into a visible image (such as a surface temperature map). This feature represents a great potential to be exploited in a vast variety of fields from aerospace to civil engineering, to medicine, to agriculture, etc. However, IRT is still not adequately enclosed in industrial instrumentation and there are still potential users who might benefit from the use of such a technique and who are not aware of their existence. This e-book conveys information about basic IRT theory, infrared detectors, signal digitalization and applications of infrared thermography in many fields such as medicine, foodstuff conservation, fluid-dynamics, architecture, anthropology, condition monitoring, non destructive testing and evaluation of materials and structures. The volume promotes an exchange of information between the academic world and industry, and shares methodologies which were independently developed and applied in specific disciplines.
