Paper Abstract
A mid-wavelength infrared (MWIR) and long-wavelength infrared (LWIR) 1024x1024 pixel quantum well infrared
photodetector (QWIP) focal plane arrays (FPAs) have been demonstrated with excellent imagery. MWIR FPA has given
noise equivalent differential temperature (NEΔT) of 19 mK at 95K operating temperature and LWIR FPA has given
NEΔT of 13 mK at 70K operating temperature. In addition, epitaxially grown self-assembled InAs/InGaAs/GaAs
quantum dots (QDs) are exploited for the development of large-format FPAs. The QD devices were fabricated into the
first LWIR 640x512 pixel QDIP FPA, which has produced excellent infrared imagery with NEΔT of 40 mK at 60K
operating temperature.
