Simulation on a Charge Sensitive Infrared Phototransistor for 45μm Wavelength
نویسندگان
چکیده
Charge sensitive infrared phototransistors (CSIP) are well known for their capability for response spectrum tuning and single photon detection. In this paper, we established a physical model for a charge sensitive infrared phototransistor operating at 45μm wavelength using the Crosslight Apsys software. Several key physical mechanisms involved such as inter-subband optical transition and resonant tunneling of carriers were applied and fine tuned to obtain a better simulation result.

Heterojunction phototransistor for highly sensitive infrared detection
In this work, we have proposed a model for the ultimate physical limit on the sensitivity of the heterojunction bipolar phototransistors (HPTs). Based on our modeling we have extracted the design criteria for the HPT for high sensitivity application. HPT with the submicron emitter and base area has the potential to be used for the low number photon resolving in near-infrared (NIR) wavelength. H...
متن کاملTop-gated black phosphorus phototransistor for sensitive broadband detection.
The present work reports on a graphene-like material that is promising for photodetection applications due to its high optical absorption and layer-dependent properties. To date, only narrowband photodetectors have been realized; therefore, extending the working wavelength is becoming more imperative for applications such as high-contrast imaging and remote sensing. In this work, we developed a...
متن کاملNear-field microscopy of spontaneous THz radiaion
We have developed a THz near-field microscope with an ultrahighly sensitive detector, CSIP (charge-sensitive infrared phototransistor). In our microscope, scattered photons by a tungsten probe are collected by an objective of a confocal THz microscope and are finally detected by the CSIP. To suppress the far-field background, the probe vertically modulated and the signal is demodulated the sign...

متن کاملPassive Terahertz Microscopy with a Highly Sensitive Detector
A passive terahertz (THz) microscope has been developed for sensitive imaging of spontaneous THz radiation. The THz microscope consisted mainly of a Ge objective lens, a confocal pinhole, Ge relay lenses, and a highly sensitive THz detector (Charge-Sensitive Infrared Phototransistor, CSIP). Then experimental examinations of the developed microscope were performed. First, THz signals, which were...
