Mid-infrared plasmonic silicon quantum dot/HgCdTe photodetector with ultrahigh specific detectivity
2023
Overview
Highly sensitive photodetectors operating at mid-infrared (MIR) wavelengths are urgently required for the applications of astronomy, optical communication, security monitoring, and so forth. However, further promoting the sensitivity in conventional MIR devices for a higher detectivity is challenging. Among the potential strategies, integrating localized surface plasmon resonance with MIR semiconductors is a promising approach to developing high-performance optoelectronics. Here we demonstrate a high-sensitivity boron (B)-doped silicon quantum dot (Si-QD)/HgCdTe (MCT) MIR photodetector. Because of plasmon-induced hot-hole tunneling and enhanced light absorption, the hybrid photodetector exhibits a high specific detectivity of ∼1.6 × 10

Jones at ∼5.8 µm under a cryogenic environment of 77 K, higher than that of bare MCT. This prominent enhancement can be attributed to the further suppression of hot-hole cooling due to a reduced phonon population at low temperatures, which facilitates more efficient hot-carrier extraction and contributes to ultrahigh sensitivity. The plasmonic material-integrated MCT architecture can pave the way for developing high-performance MIR photodetection.
