摘要: We have studied the conduction band electronic level structure of GaInAsN/(Al)GaAs-based quantum well (QW) infrared photodetectors using intersubband photocurrent (PC) spectroscopy and dark current analysis. Photoluminescence absorption were carried out as complementary spectroscopic techniques. Based on observed transition energy, we associated peaks with electron excitations from bound states in wells to quasi-bound continuum. A good agreement experimental results was obtained a 10-band k · p model that took into account inhomogeneous distribution nitrogen atoms along well's growth direction.
