Abstract
The authors propose and demonstrate the integration of a quantum well intersub-band photodetector (QWIP) and a light emitting diode (LED) for making large two-dimensional focal plane arrays for thermal imaging applications. The newly developed QWIP technology is combined with the well established LED technology both based on GaAs and related epitaxially grown alloys, such as AlGaAs and InGaAs
