摘要
In this letter we report the molecular beam epitaxial growth and characterization of InAs/GaSb superlattices grown on semi-insulating GaAs substrates for long wavelength infrared detectors. Photoconductive detectors fabricated from the superlattices showed photoresponse up to 12 mu m and peak responsivity of 5.5 V/W with Johnson noise limited detectivity of 1.33 x 10(9) cm Hz(1/2)/W at 10.3 mu m at 78 K.
