Abstract :
We report the fabrication and characterization of high performance superlattice infrared photodetectors. The single-element detectors have 50% cutoff wavelengths of 5.2 μm and 8.0μm with related R0A of 7.5×104O·cm2 and 110Ωcm2, respectively at 77K. The focal plane arrays with cutoff wavelength of 5.2μm and format of 128×128, showed a noise equivalent differential temperature 33.4mK at 80K. Fabrication of long wavelength FPA is under way.
