Abstract
Room temperature photoresponse in the mid-infrared spectral region is demonstrated from InAsSbN/InAs multi-quantum well photodiodes grown by nitrogen plasma assisted molecular beam epitaxy. The structural quality of the InAsSbN MQWs was ascertained in-situ by reflection high energy electron diffraction and ex-situ by high resolution X-ray diffraction and photoluminescence measurements. The extended long wavelength photoresponse is identified to originate from the electron-heavy hole (e1-hh1) and electron-light hole (e1-lh1) transitions in the InAsSbN MQW, with a cut off wavelength ~ 4.20 µm and peak detectivity D* =1.25×109 cm Hz1/2 W-1.
