AbstractThe theory of multiple quantum well n-type Si-SiGe IR detectors is presented. The coefficient of photoabsorption, quantum efficiency and responsivity of Si-SiGe quantum well detector are calculated taking in consideration the effects of depolarization and electron-electron exchange interaction. We show that the Si-SiGe quantum well detectors possess lower dark current and better performance characteristics compared to GaAs-AlGaAs photodetectors.

AbstractDoped GexSi1−x/Si multiple quantum well structures have been grown by UHV/CVD and characterized by various techniques. SIMS and X- ray confirm the intended modulation of germanium and boron concentrations, and photoluminescence has been used to assess material quality. Strong free- carrier absorption has been observed at normal incidence in some samples. The results suggest that doping intermediate between 4 × 1018 cm−3 and 4 × 1019 cm−3 is necessary for useful detectors.

Absract:Temperature-dependent electroluminescence (EL) of InGaN/GaN multiple-quantum-well light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with peak emission energies ranging from 2.3 eV (green) to 3.3 eV (UV) has been studied over a wide temperature range (5-300 K). As the temperature is decreased from 300 K to 150 K, the EL intensity increases in all devices due to reduced nonradiative recombination and improved carrier confinement. However, LED operation at lower temperatures (150-5 K) is a strong function of In ratio in the active layer. For the green LEDs, emission intensity increases monotonically in the whole temperature range, while for the blue and UV LEDs, a remarkable decrease of the light output was observed, accompanied by a large redshift of the peak energy. The discrepancy can be attributed to various amounts of localization states caused by In composition fluctuation in the QW active regions. Based on a rate equation analysis, we find that the densities of the localized states in the green LEDs are more than two orders of magnitude higher than that in the UV LED. The large number of localized states in the green LEDs are crucial to maintain high-efficiency carrier capture at low temperatures.
