Abstract
We report work on several quantum structure based infrared detectors. We describe the concept of the submonolayer quantum dot based infrared photodetectors, report device results, and present imaging results from a megapixel focal plane array. We describe the concept and experimental progress of the quantum well intra-subband photodetector (QWISP), which is closely related to the quantum well infrared photodetector (QWIP), but uses the dopant-assisted intra-subband absorption mechanism in quantum wells for normal-incidence far infrared/terahertz radiation detection. We discuss aspects of superlattice heterostructure based barrier infrared detectors (BIRDs).
