2. | Optical losses of Al-free lasers for λ = 0.808 and 0.98 μm H. Yi, J. Diaz, B. Lane, and M. Razeghi Applied Physics Letters 69 (20)-- November 11, 1996 ...[Visit Journal] In this work, we study the origin of the optical losses in Al‐free InGaAsP/GaAs (λ=0.808 μm) and InGaAs/GaAs/InGaP (λ=0.980 μm) lasers. Theoretical modeling and the experimental results indicate that the scattering of the laser beam by refractive index fluctuation in the alloys is the dominant loss in our lasers, and the loss due to the free‐carrier absorption and scattering by interface roughness are negligible.

Haddadi, S. R. Darvish, and M. Razeghi Appl. Phys. Lett. 103, 223501 (2013)-- November 25, 2013 ...[Visit Journal] Y2O3 was applied to passivate a long-wavelength infrared type-II superlattice gated photodetector array with 50% cut-off wavelength at 11 μm, resulting in a saturated gate bias that was 3 times lower than in a SiO2 passivated array. Besides effectively suppressing surface leakage, gating technique exhibited its ability to enhance the quantum efficiency of 100 × 100 μm size mesa from 51% to 57% by suppressing sidewall surface recombination.

Haritos Journal of Applied Physics 75 (8)-- April 15, 1994 ...[Visit Journal] A direct comparison of the physical properties of GaN thin films is made as a function of the choice of substrate orientations. Gallium nitride single crystals were grown on (0001) and (011-bar 2) sapphire substrates by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. Better crystallinity with fine ridgelike facets is obtained on the (011-bar 2) sapphire. Also lower carrier concentration and higher mobilities indicate both lower nitrogen vacancies and less oxygen incorporation on the (011-bar 2) sapphire. The results of this study show better physical properties of GaN thin films achieved on (011-bar 2) sapphire. [reprint (PDF)] |
2. | High performance photodiodes based on InAs/InAsSb type-II superlattices for very long wavelength infrared detection A. M. Hoang, G. Chen, R. Chevallier, A. Haddadi, and M. Razeghi Appl. Phys. Lett. 104, 251105 (2014)-- June 23, 2014 ...[Visit Journal] Very long wavelength infrared photodetectors based on InAs/InAsSb Type-II superlattices are demonstrated on GaSb substrate. A heterostructure photodiode was grown with 50% cut-off wavelength of 14.6 μm. At 77 K, the photodiode exhibited a peak responsivity of 4.8 A/W, corresponding to a quantum efficiency of 46% at −300 mV bias voltage from front side illumination without antireflective coating. With the dark current density of 0.7 A/cm², it provided a specific detectivity of 1.4 × 1010 Jones.

Tidrow SPIE Conference, Jose, CA, Vol. 5732, pp. 326-- January 22, 2005 ...[Visit Journal] Inter-subband detectors such as quantum well infrared photodetectors (QWIP) have been widely used in infrared detection. Quantum dot infrared photodetectors (QDIPs) have been predicted to have better performance than QWIPs including higher operation temperature and normal incidence detection. Here we report our recent results of InAs QDIP grown on InP substrate by low-pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). The device structures consist of multiple stacks of InAs quantum dots with InP barriers. High detectivities in the range of 1010cm·Hz1/2/W were obtained at 77K. The measurements at higher temperatures show better temperature dependent performance than QWIP. However, the performances of QDIPs are still far from the expected. One of the reasons is the low quantum efficiency due to the low fill factor of quantum dots layer. Resonant cavity enhanced QDIP has been studied to increase the quantum efficiency. Different schemes of mirrors using free carrier plasma and distributed Bragg reflector are discussed. [reprint (PDF)] |
2. | Investigation of Enhanced Heteroepitaxy and Electrical Properties in k-Ga2O3 due to Interfacing with β-Ga2O3 Template Layers Junhee Lee, Lakshay Gautam, Ferechteh H. Teherani, Eric V. Sandana, P. Bove, David J. Rogers and Manijeh Razeghi J. Lee, M. Razeghi, Physica Status Solidi A 2023,220, 2200559, https://doi.org/10.1002/pssa.202200559 ...[Visit Journal] Heteroepitaxial k-Ga2O3 films grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) were found to have superior materials and electrical properties thanks to the interfacing with a b-Ga2O3 template layer. k-Ga2O3grown on sapphire has not been able to demonstrate its full potential due to materials imperfections created by strain induced by the lattice mismatch at the interface between the epilayer and the substrate. By adopting a b-Ga2O3 template on a c-sapphire substrate, higher quality k-Ga2O3thin films were obtained, as evidenced by a smoother surface morphology, narrower XRD peaks, and superior electrical performance. The implications of this phenomenon, caused by b-Ga2O3 buffer layer, are already very encouraging for both boosting current device performance and opening up the perspective of novel applications for Ga2O3.

Razeghi Applied Physics Letters 76 (4)-- January 24, 2000 ...[Visit Journal] We report the fabrication and characterization of AlxGa1–xN photodiodes (x~0.70) grown on sapphire by low-pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. The peak responsivity for –5 V bias is 0.11 A/W at 232 nm, corresponding to an internal quantum efficiency greater than 90%. The device response drops four orders of magnitude by 275 nm and remains at low response for the entire near-ultraviolet and visible spectrum. Improvements were made to the device design including a semitransparent Ni/Au contact layer and a GaN:Mg cap layer, which dramatically increased device response by enhancing the carrier collection efficiency.

2. | Investigation of impurities in type-II InAs/GaSb superlattices via capacitance-voltage measurement G. Chen, A. M. Hoang, S. Bogdanov, A. Haddadi, P. R. Bijjam, B.-M. Nguyen, and M. Razeghi Applied Physics Letters 103, 033512 (2013)-- July 17, 2013 ...[Visit Journal] Capacitance-voltage measurement was utilized to characterize impurities in the non-intentionally doped region of Type-II InAs/GaSb superlattice p-i-n photodiodes. Ionized carrier concentration versus temperature dependence revealed the presence of a kind of defects with activation energy below 6 meV and a total concentration of low 1015 cm−3. Correlation between defect characteristics and superlattice designs was studied. The defects exhibited a p-type behavior with decreasing activation energy as the InAs thickness increased from 7 to 11 monolayers, while maintaining the GaSb thickness of 7 monolayers. With 13 monolayers of InAs, the superlattice became n-type and the activation energy deviated from the p-type trend. [reprint (PDF)] |
2. | High brightness angled cavity quantum cascade lasers D. Heydari, Y. Bai, N. Bandyopadhyay, S. Slivken, and M. Razeghi Applied Physics Letters 106, 091105-- March 6, 2015 ...[Visit Journal] A quantum cascade laser (QCL) with an output power of 203 W is demonstrated in pulsed mode at

The back facet is high reflection coated, and the front facet is anti-reflection coated. The emitting wavelength is around 4.8 μm. In distinct contrast to a straight cavity broad area QCL, the lateral far field is single lobed with a divergence angle of only 3°. An ultrahigh brightness value of 156 MW cm²·sr-1 is obtained, which marks the brightest QCL to date. [reprint (PDF)] |

Razeghi Applied Physics Letters 71 (17)-- October 27, 1997 ...[Visit Journal] We demonstrate high-power InAsSb/InPAsSb laser bars (λ ≈ 3.2 μm) consisting of three 100 μm-wide laser stripes of 700 μm cavity length, with peak output power up to 3 W at 90 K, and far-fields for the direction perpendicular to the junction as narrow as 12° full width half maximum. Spectra and far-field patterns of the laser bars are shown to have excellent characteristics for a wide range of operating conditions, suggesting the possibility of even higher light power emission with good beam quality. Joule heating is shown to be the major factor limiting higher power operation. [reprint (PDF)] |
2. | Very high performance LWIR and VLWIR type-II InAs/GaSb superlattice photodiodes with M-structure barrier B.M. Nguyen, D. Hoffman, P.Y. Delaunay, E.K. Huang and M. Razeghi SPIE Proceedings, Vol. 7082, San Diego, CA 2008, p. 708205-- September 3, 2008 ...[Visit Journal] LWIR and VLWIR type-II InAs/GaSb superlattice photodetectors have for long time suffered from a
high dark current level and a low dynamic resistance which hampers the its emergence to the infrared detection and imaging industry. However, with the use of M-structure superlattice, a new Type-II binary InAs/GaSb/AlSb superlattice design, as an effective blocking barrier, the dark current in type-II superlattice diode has been significantly reduced. We have obtained comparable differential resistance product to the MCT technology at the cut-off wavelength of 10 and 14μm. Also, this new design is compatible with the optical optimization scheme, leading to high quantum efficiency, high special detectivity devices for photon detectors and focal plane arrays.

2. | Suppressing Spectral Crosstalk in Dual-Band LongWavelength Infrared Photodetectors With Monolithically Integrated Air-Gapped Distributed Bragg Reflectors Yiyun Zhang, Abbas Haddadi, Arash Dehzangi , Romain Chevallier, Manijeh Razeghi IEEE Journal of Quantum Electronics Volume: 55, Issue:1-- November 22, 2018 ...[Visit Journal] Antimonide-based type-II superlattices (T2SLs) have made possible the development of high-performance infrared cameras for use in a wide variety of thermal imaging applications, many of which could benefit from dual-band imaging. The performance of this material system has not reached its limits. One of the key issues in dual-band infrared photodetection is spectral crosstalk. In this paper, air-gapped distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs) have been monolithically integrated between the two channels in long-/very long-wavelength dualband InAs/InAs1−xSbx/AlAs1−xSbx-based T2SLs photodetectors to suppress the spectral crosstalk. This air-gapped DBR has achieved a significant spectral suppression in the 4.5–7.5-µm photonic stopband while transmitting the optical wavelengths beyond 7.5 µm, which is confirmed by theoretical calculations, numerical simulation, and experimental results.

2. | Bias–selectable nBn dual–band long–/very long–wavelength infrared photodetectors based on InAs/InAsSb/AlAsSb type–II superlattices Abbas Haddadi, Arash Dehzangi, Romain Chevallier, Sourav Adhikary, & Manijeh Razeghi Nature Scientific Reports 7, Article number: 3379-- June 13, 2017 ...[Visit Journal] Type–II superlattices (T2SLs) are a class of artificial semiconductors that have demonstrated themselves as a viable candidate to compete with the state–of–the–art mercury–cadmium–telluride material system in the field of infrared detection and imaging. Within type–II superlattices, InAs/InAs1−xSbx T2SLs have been shown to have a significantly longer minority carrier lifetime. However, demonstration of high–performance dual–band photodetectors based on InAs/InAs1−xSbx T2SLs in the long and very long wavelength infrared (LWIR & VLWIR) regimes remains challenging. We report the demonstration of high–performance bias–selectable dual–band long–wavelength infrared photodetectors based on new InAs/InAsSb/AlAsSb type–II superlattice design. Our design uses two different bandgap absorption regions separated by an electron barrier that blocks the transport of majority carriers to reduce the dark current density of the device. As the applied bias is varied, the device exhibits well–defined cut–off wavelengths of either ∼8.7 or ∼12.5 μm at 77 K. This bias–selectable dual–band photodetector is compact, with no moving parts, and will open new opportunities for multi–spectral LWIR and VLWIR imaging and detection. [reprint (PDF)] |
