摘要
We report the realization of electron intraband absorption based middle- (similar to5.6 mum) and long- (similar to10 mum) wavelength infrared (IR) photoresponse for normally incident radiation on InGaAs-capped GaAs(001)/InAs quantum dots (QDs) in a n-i(QD)-n structure. The relative photoresponse in this dual-wavelength structure is tunable up to two orders of magnitude with bias. The full width at half maximum of the long-wavelength IR intraband photocurrent peak at 80 K is as narrow as 8.2 meV. (C) 2002 American Institute of Physics.
