Fig. 1. Structure of the detector. The absorption layer consists of 500 nm intrinsic In 0.53 Ga 0.47 As In 0.53 Ga 0.47 As In 0.53 Ga 0.47 As 1 × 10 18 cm − 3
Fig. 2. Simulated band energy variation of the detector after adding the p-charge layer. The bias voltage of the detector is set at 0.2 V.
Fig. 3. Dark current lowering mechanism. For clarity, the thickness of each layer is not proportional to their real value.
Fig. 4. Tested dark current density of the detectors. The diameter of the circle mesa is 25 μm.
Fig. 5. Photo-response of the detector. The temperature of the blackbody is set at 1073 K and the emergent light is filtered by a light filter with a central wavelength around 1500 nm and a bandwidth of 1000 nm. The detector is placed in front of the blackbody with a linear distance of 12 cm.
