TI - 2.5-µm InGaAs photodiodes grown on GaAs substrates by interfacial misfit array technique EP - 324 VL - 81 AV - public Y1 - 2017/03// SP - 320 JF - Infrared Physics & Technology KW - Infrared KW - Photodiodes KW - Epitaxy KW - Interfacial misfit array KW - Short-wavelength A1 - Jurczak, P A1 - Sablon, KA A1 - Gutiérrez, M A1 - Liu, H A1 - Wu, J ID - discovery1541016 N2 - In0.85Ga0.15As photodetectors grown on GaAs substrates using an interfacial misfit array-based simple buffer are studied. The material quality is assessed with a range of characterization tools showing low surface roughness and low density of threading dislocations. These results indicate a significant improvement on crystal quality compared to structures grown on InP substrates by using metamorphic buffers. Quantum efficiency and responsivity measurements show good performance of the fabricated devices between 1.5 and 2.5 µm, making them highly suitable for short-wavelength infrared applications.
