摘要: The intersubband infrared photodetector performance is theoretically analyzed for various stages of interdiffusion in AlGaAs/GaAs quantum well. absorption strength and responsivity are enhanced certain extents the peak detection wavelength red shifts continuously with a large tunable range from 7 to 38.4 μm. dark current at an acceptable value small diffusion extent.
