Abstract

The invention provides a digital alloy AlAsSb material and a digital alloy medium-wave infrared detector, and aims to overcome the defects that an absorption layer and a barrier layer of an existing barrier type device have a relatively high valence band order, holes are blocked by valence band barriers in the moving process, and quantum efficiency is reduced, and provides the digital alloy AlAsSb material and the digital alloy medium-wave infrared detector; a layer of AlAsxSb1-x material with the thickness of d2 grows to form an AlAsySb1-y basic unit with the thickness of d1+d2, d1+d2 is taken as a period, repeated growth for n periods is achieved to form the digital alloy DA-AAlAsySb1-y, y is the overall average As component in the digital alloy, and x is the As component in one layer of the basic unit, by adopting the digital alloy and the digital alloy medium-wave infrared detector provided by the invention, hole movement is smoother, quantum efficiency of the detector can be effectively improved, and the dark current of the device is not influenced, so the detector can be more easily adapted to different absorption layers.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a digital alloy material and a mid-wave infrared detector with the digital alloy material. Background technique [0002] The mid-wave infrared detector with a detection wavelength of 3-5 microns is widely used in aerospace, satellite reconnaissance, precision guidance, night vision imaging and other fields. The current mainstream InSb and HgCdTe-based mid-wave infrared detectors have excellent performance, but they need to work in a low-temperature environment of about 80 K, so the requirements for the refrigerator are very high, which makes the overall size and weight of the detector large, and the power consumption is low. high cost. Reducing the size, weight, power consumption, cost, and improving reliability of detectors is an important development trend of detectors. The reduction of size, weight, power consumption, cost and improvement of reliability of detectors can greatly expand its The scope of application, for exam...
