| Description | The extension of the optical response of narrow band gap III-V semiconductors into the long wavelength infrared radiation (LWIR) regime for high sensitivity sensor applications is a challenging problem. Recent advances in nipi doped GaAs superlattices, lattice mismatched epitaxy and the heteroepitaxial growth of III-V compound semiconductors on silicon substrates offer a number of opportunities. Researchers describe two different device approaches based on the molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) growth of superlattice materials which are directed to LWIR focal plane array technology. The first of these uses nipi superlattices fabricated in bulk InAs which has been grown on either GaAs or Si substrates. The second is based on the growth of a new pseudomorphic tetragonal phase of InAs on GaAs to create a semimetal/semiconductor superlattice material. |
