18.	Uncooled operation of Type-II InAs/GaSb superlattice photodiodes in the mid- wavelength infrared range Y. Wei, A. Hood, H. Yau, A. Gin, M. Razeghi, M.Z. Tidrow, V. Natha Applied Physics Letters, 86 (23)-- June 6, 2005 ...[Visit Journal] We report high performance uncooled midwavelength infrared photodiodes based on interface-engineered InAs/GaSb superlattice. Two distinct superlattices were designed with a cutoff wavelength around 5 µm for room temperature and 77 K. The device quantum efficiency reached more than 25% with responsivity around 1 A/W. Detectivity was measured around 10⁹ cm·Hz^½/W at room temperature and 1.5×10¹³ cm·Hz^½/W at 77 K under zero bias. The devices were without antireflective coating. The device quantum efficiency stays at nearly the same level within this temperature range. Additionally, Wannier–Stark oscillations in the Zener tunneling current were observed up to room temperature. [reprint (PDF)]
18.	High performance focal plane array based on type-II InAs/GaSb superlattice heterostructures P.Y. Delaunay and M. Razeghi SPIE Conference, January 20-25, 2008, San Jose, CA Proceedings – Quantum Sensing and Nanophotonic Devices V, Vol. 6900, p. 69000M-1-10.-- February 1, 2008 ...[Visit Journal] Recent progress in growth techniques, structure design and processing has lifted the performances of Type-II InAs/GaSb superlattice photodetectors. A double heterostructure design, based on a low band gap (11 µm) active region and high band gap (5 µm) superlattice contacts, reduced the sensitivity of the superlattice to surface effects. The heterodiodes with an 11 µm cutoff, passivated with SiO₂, presented similar performances to unpassivated devices and a one order of magnitude increase of the resistivity of the sidewalls, even after flip-chip bonding and underfill. Thanks to this new design and to the inversion of the polarity of the devices, a high performance focal plane array with an 11 µm cutoff was demonstrated. The noise equivalent temperature difference was measured as 26 mK and 19 mK for operating temperatures of 81 K and 67 K. At an integration time of 0.08 ms, the FPA presented a quantum efficiency superior to 50%. [reprint (PDF)]
18.	New frontiers in InP based quantum devices Manijeh Razeghi Indium Phosphide and Related Materials, 2008. IPRM 2008. 20th International Conference on, pp.1,4, (2008)-- May 29, 2008 ...[Visit Journal] Recent research activities taking place at center for quantum devices (CQD) based on InP material system, especially the exploration and demonstration of the state-of-art high performance quantum cascade lasers (QCL), greatly facilitate the understanding of the underlining physical principles governing the device operation. Thanks to the endless effort putting into the semiconductor epitaxy technologies, including the Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) and low pressure metal organic chemical vapor deposition (LP-MOCVD), the world has seen a close approaching to the ultimate band gap engineering. Highly sophisticated man-made heterostructure, which incorporates hundreds of alternating layers of GaInAs/AlInAs with each layer thickness and composition specifically designed, can be created within a single growth. The material quality is evidenced by the atomically abrupt interfaces. The versatility of the band gap engineering is greatly enhanced by the strain-balanced technique, which allows for growing structures with continuously tunable conduction band offset with little defects. As a result, the room temperature continuous wave (CW) wall plug efficiency (WPE) and the maximum achievable output optical power from a single device have been constantly improving. Novel waveguide incorporating the photonic crystal distributed feedback (PCDFB) mechanism is also investigated with satisfactory preliminary results. [reprint (PDF)]

18.	Efficiency of photoluminescence and excess carrier confinement in InGaAsP/GaAs structures prepared by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition J. Diaz, H.J. Yi, M. Erdtmann, X. He, E. Kolev, D. Garbuzov, E. Bigan, and M. Razeghi Journal of Applied Physics 76 (2)-- July 15, 1994 ...[Visit Journal] Special double‐ and separate‐confinement InGaAsP/GaAs heterostructures intended for photoluminescence measurements have been grown by low‐pressure metal‐organic chemical‐vapor deposition. The band gap of the active region quaternary material was close to 1.5 eV, and the waveguide of the separate‐confinement structures was near 1.8 eV. Measurement of the integrated luminescence efficiency at 300 K has shown that over a wide range of excitation level (10–10³ W/cm²) radiative transitions are the dominant mechanism for excess carrier recombination in the active region of the structures studied. As determined by spectral measurements, the excess carrier concentration in the waveguide of the separate‐confinement heterostructures and the intensity of the waveguide emission band correspond to a condition of thermal equilibrium of the excess carrier populations in the active region and the waveguide. The ratio of the intensity of the waveguide emission to the active region emission fits a model which assumes that the barrier height for minority carriers (holes) is equal to the difference in band gaps between the active region and the waveguide region.

18.	Demonstration of Planar Type-II Superlattice-Based Photodetectors Using Silicon Ion-Implantation Arash Dehzangi, Donghai Wu, Ryan McClintock, Jiakai Li, Alexander Jaud and Manijeh Razeghi Photonics 2020, 7(3), 68; https://doi.org/10.3390/photonics7030068-- September 3, 2020 ...[Visit Journal] In this letter, we report the demonstration of a pBn planar mid-wavelength infrared photodetectors based on type-II InAs/InAs1−xSbx superlattices, using silicon ion-implantation to isolate the devices. At 77 K the photodetectors exhibited peak responsivity of 0.76 A/W at 3.8 µm, corresponding to a quantum efficiency, without anti-reflection coating, of 21.5% under an applied bias of +40 mV with a 100% cut-off wavelength of 4.6 µm. With a dark current density of 5.21 × 10−6 A/cm2, under +40 mV applied bias and at 77 K, the photodetector exhibited a specific detectivity of 4.95 × 1011 cm·Hz1/2/W. [reprint (PDF)]
18.	Thermal analysis of buried heterostructure quantum cascade lasers for long-wavelength infrared emission using 2D anisotropic heat-dissipation model H.K. Lee, K.S. Chung, J.S. Yu and M. Razeghi Physica Status Solidi (a), Vol. 206, p. 356-362-- February 1, 2009 ...[Visit Journal] We have theoretically investigated and compared the thermal characteristics of 10.6 μm InGaAs/InAlAs/InP buried heterostructure (BH) quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) with different heat-sinking configurations by a steady-state heat-transfer analysis. The heat-source densities were obtained from laser threshold power densities measured experimentally under room-temperature continuous-wave mode. The two-dimensional anisotropic heat-dissipation model was used to calculate the temperature distribution, heat flux, and thermal conductance (Gth) inside the device. For good thermal characteristics, the QCLs in the long-wavelength infrared region require the relatively narrow BH structure in combination with epilayer-down bonding due to thick active core/cladding layers and high insulator losses. The single-ridge BH structure results in slightly higher thermal conductance by 2-4% than the double-channel (DC) ridge BH structure. For W = 12 m with 5 μm thick electroplated Au, the single-ridge BH laser with epilayer-down bonding exhibited the highest G_th value of 201.9 W/K cm², i.e. increased by nearly 36% with respect to the epilayer-up bonded DC ridge waveguide laser. This value is improved by 50% and 62% with respect to the single-ridge BH laser and DC ridge waveguide laser with W = 20 μm in the epilayer-up bonding scheme, respectively. [reprint (PDF)]
18.	On the performance and surface passivation of type-II InAs/GaSb superlattice photodiodes for the very-long- wavelength infrared A. Hood, M. Razeghi, E. Aifer, G.J. Brown Applied Physics Letters 87 (1)-- October 10, 2005 ...[Visit Journal] We demonstrate very-long-wavelength infrared Type-II InAs/GaSb superlattice photodiodes with a cutoff wavelength (λ_c,50%) of 17 μm. We observed a zero-bias, peak Johnson noise-limited detectivity of 7.63×10⁹ cm·Hz^½/W at 77 K with a 90%-10% cutoff width of 17 meV, and quantum efficiency of 30%. Variable area diode zero-bias resistance-area product (R₀A) measurements indicated that silicon dioxide passivation increased surface resistivity by nearly a factor of 5, over unpassivated photodiodes, and increased overall R₀A uniformity. The bulk R₀A at 77 K was found to be 0.08 Ω·cm², with RA increasing more than twofold at 25 mV reverse bias. [reprint (PDF)]
18.	Overview of Quantum Cascade Laser Research at the Center for Quantum Devices S. Slivken, A. Evans, J. Nguyen, Y. Bai, P. Sung, S.R. Darvish, W. Zhang and M. Razeghi SPIE Conference, January 20-25, 2008, San Jose, CA Proceedings – Quantum Sensing and Nanophotonic Devices V, Vol. 6900, p. 69000B-1-8.-- February 1, 2008 ...[Visit Journal] Over the past several years, our group has endeavored to develop high power quantum cascade lasers for a variety of remote and high sensitivity infrared applications. The systematic optimization of laser performance has allowed for demonstration of high power, continuous-wave quantum cascade lasers operating above room temperature. In the past year alone, the efficiency and power of our short wavelength lasers (~4.8 µm) has doubled. In continuous wave at room temperature, we have now separately demonstrated ~10% wallplug efficiency and ~700 mW of output power. Up to now, we have been able to show that room temperature continuous wave operation with > 100 mW output power in the 3.8 < λ < 11.5 µm wavelength range is possible. [reprint (PDF)]
18.	Inductively coupled plasma etching and processing techniques for type-II InAs/GaSb superlattices infrared detectors toward high fill factor focal plane arrays E.K. Huang, B.M. Nguyen, D. Hoffman, P.Y. Delaunay and M. Razeghi SPIE Proceedings, San Jose, CA Volume 7222-0Z-- January 26, 2009 ...[Visit Journal] A challenge for Type-II InAs/GaSb superlattice (T2SL) photodetectors is to achieve high fill factor, high aspect ratio etching for third generation focal plane arrays (FPAs). Initially, we compare the morphological and electrical results of single element T2SL photodiodes after BCl₃/Ar inductively coupled plasma (ICP) and electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) dry etching. Using a Si₃N₄ hard mask, ICP-etched structures exemplify greater sidewall verticality and smoothness, which are essential toward the realization of high fill factor FPAs. ICP-etched single element devices with SiO₂ passivation that are 9.3 µm in cutoff wavelength achieved vertical sidewalls of 7.7 µm in depth with a resistance area product at zero bias of greater than 1,000 Ω·cm² and maximum differential resistance in excess of 10,000 Ω·cm² at 77 K. By only modifying the etching technique in the fabrication steps, the ICP-etched photodiodes showed an order of magnitude decrease in their dark current densities in comparison to the ECR-etched devices. Finally, high aspect ratio etching is demonstrated on mutli-element arrays with 3 µm-wide trenches that are 11 µm deep. [reprint (PDF)]
17.	Intrinsic AlGaN photodetectors for the entire compositional range D. Walker, X. Zhang, A. Saxler, P. Kung, J. Xu, and M. Razeghi SPIE Conference, San Jose, CA, -- February 12, 1997 ...[Visit Journal] Al_xGa_1-xN ultraviolet photoconductors with cut- off wavelengths from 365 nm to 200 nm have been fabricated and characterized. Various characteristics of the devices, such as photoresponse, voltage-dependent responsivity, frequency-dependent responsivity and noise spectral density, were measured and cross-referenced with optical, electrical and structural characteristics of the material to provide information about the mechanisms taking place during detection. The maximum detectivity reached 5.5 X 10⁸ cm·Hz^½/W at a modulating frequency of 14 Hz. The effective majority carrier lifetime in Al_xGa_1-xN materials, derived from frequency-dependent photoconductivity measurements, has been estimated to be from 6 to 35 msec. The frequency-dependent noise-spectrum shows that it is dominated by Johnson-noise at high frequencies for low Al-composition samples. [reprint (PDF)]
17.	Geiger-mode operation of back-illuminated GaN avalanche photodiodes J. L. Pau, R. McClintock, K. Minder, C. Bayram, P. Kung, M. Razeghi, E. Muñoz, and D. Silversmith Applied Physics Letters, Vol. 91, No. 04, p. 041104 -1-- July 23, 2007 ...[Visit Journal] We report the Geiger-mode operation of back-illuminated GaN avalanche photodiodes fabricated on transparent AlN templates specifically for back illumination in order to enhance hole-initiated multiplication. The spectral response in Geiger-mode operation was analyzed under low photon fluxes. Single photon detection capabilities were demonstrated in devices with areas ranging from 225 to 14,063 µm². Single photon detection efficiency of 20% and dark count rate < 10 kHz were achieved in the smallest devices. [reprint (PDF)]
17.	Temperature insensitivity of the Al-free InGaAsP/GaAs lasers for λ = 808 and 908 nm M. Razeghi, H. Yi, J. Diaz, S. Kim, and M. Erdtmann SPIE Conference, San Jose, CA; Proceedings 3001-- February 12, 1997 ...[Visit Journal] n this work, we present our recent achievements for the reliability of the Al-free lasers at high temperatures and high powers. Laser operations up to 30,000 hours were achieved without any degradation in the lasers characteristics from 7 randomly selected InGaAsP/GaAs diodes for λ = 808 nm. The test were performed for lasers without mirror-coating for optical power of 0.5 to 1 W CW at 50 approximately 60 °C. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first direct demonstration of the extremely high reliability of Al-free diodes operations at high powers and temperatures for periods of time much longer than practical need (approximately 3 years). The characteristics during the tests are discussed in detail. [reprint (PDF)]
17.	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/InAs_1−xSb_x/AlAs_1−xSb_x-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.

17.	Demonstration of type-II superlattice MWIR minority carrier unipolar imager for high operation temperature application Guanxi Chen, Abbas Haddadi, Anh-Minh Hoang, Romain Chevallier, and Manijeh Razeghi Optics Letters Vol. 40, Iss. 1, pp. 29–32-- December 18, 2014 ...[Visit Journal] An InAs/GaSb type-II superlattice-based mid-wavelength infrared (MWIR) 320×256 unipolar focal plane array (FPA) using pMp architecture exhibited excellent infrared image from 81 to 150 K and ∼98% operability, which illustrated the possibility for high operation temperature application. At 150 K and −50 mV operation bias, the 27 μm pixels exhibited dark current density to be 1.2×10⁻⁵ A/cm², with 50% cutoff wavelength of 4.9 μm, quantum efficiency of 67% at peak responsivity (4.6 μm), and specific detectivity of 1.2×10¹² Jones. At 90 K and below, the 27 μm pixels exhibited system limited dark current density, which is below 1×10⁻⁹ A/cm², and specific detectivity of 1.5×10¹⁴ Jones. From 81 to 100 K, the FPA showed ∼11 mK NEDT by using F/2.3 optics and a 9.69 ms integration time. [reprint (PDF)]
17.	Relaxation kinetics in quantum cascade laser S. Slivken, V. Litvinov, M. Razeghi, and J.R. Meyer Journal of Applied Physics 85 (2)-- January 15, 1999 ...[Visit Journal] Relaxation kinetics in a quantum cascade intersubband laser are investigated. Distribution functions and gain spectra of a three-subband double-quantum-well active region are obtained as a function of temperature and injection current. The potentially important role of the nonequilibrium phonons at lasing threshold is shown and discussed in details. It is shown that the threshold current is strongly dependent of the power dissipated in the active region in steady state. The numerical calculations for an 8.5 μm laser illustrate the general issues of relaxation kinetics in quantum cascade lasers. Temperature dependence of the threshold current is obtained in a good agreement with the experiments. [reprint (PDF)]
17.	Investigation of 0.8 μm InGaAsP-GaAs laser diodes with Multiple Quantum Wells J. Diaz, H. Yi, S. Kim, M. Erdtmann, L.J. Wang, I. Eliashevich, E. Bigan and M. Razeghi Optoelectronic Integrated Circuit Materials, Physics and Devices, SPIE Conference, San Jose, CA; Proceedings, Vol. 2397-- February 6, 1995 ...[Visit Journal] In this paper, we studied the effects of the active region structure (one, two and three quantum wells with same total thickness) for high-power InGaAsP-GaAs separate confinement heterostructure lasers emitting at 0.8 μm wavelength. Experimental results for the lasers grown by low pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition show excellent agreement with the theoretical model. Total output power of 47 W from an uncoated 1 cm-wide laser bar was achieved in quasi-continuous wave operation [reprint (PDF)]
17.	Room temperature operation of Ge/SixGe1−x−ySny terahertz quantum cascade lasers predicted using extended combined resonant tunneling and rate equation model Zhou Li,, Zhichao Chen, Baiqi Zhang, Qiyun Lai, Zhanfeng Jiang, Yaoyao Liang Yulong Fan, Haoxiang Li, Qi Qin, Manijeh Razeghi∗, and Feihu Wang∗ J Appl Phys 138 (23) (2025) ...[Visit Journal] Raising operation temperature of terahertz (THz) quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) to room temperature remains a key challenge in QCL community. Group-IV semiconductors are believed to be a promising solution to this problem since the polar phonon–electron scattering is negligible at elevated temperature. Here, we develop a theoretical model for THz QCL development. This model is established on the combined resonant tunneling and rate equation framework and is extended to be applicable for group-IV QCL design through introducing new scattering mechanisms and continuum states carrier leakage. A two-well THz QCL based on a direct phonon extraction strategy is designed and predicted to be capable of working above 300 K. This result lays the foundation for future room temperature THz QCL devices development using group-IV semiconductors. [reprint (PDF)]
17.	Structural, Optical, Electrical and Morphological Study of Transparent p-NiO/n-ZnO Heterojunctions Grown by PLD V. E. Sandana, D. J. Rogers, F. Hosseini Teherani, P. Bove, N. Ben Sedrine, M. R. Correia, T. Monteiro, R. McClintock, and M. Razeghi Proc. SPIE 9364, Oxide-based Materials and Devices VI, 93641O-- March 24, 2015 ...[Visit Journal] NiO/ZnO heterostructures were fabricated on FTO/glass and bulk hydrothermal ZnO substrates by pulsed laser deposition. X-Ray diffraction and Room Temperature (RT) Raman studies were consistent with the formation of (0002) oriented wurtzite ZnO and (111) oriented fcc NiO. RT optical transmission studies revealed bandgap energy values of ~3.70 eV and ~3.30 eV for NiO and ZnO, respectively and more than 80% transmission for the whole ZnO/NiO/FTO/glass stack over the majority of the visible spectrum. Lateral p-n heterojunction mesas (~6mm x 6mm) were fabricated using a shadow mask during PLD growth. n-n and p-p measurements showed that Ti/Au contacting gave an Ohmic reponse for the NiO, ZnO and FTO. Both heterojunctions had rectifying I/V characteristics. The junction on FTO/glass gave forward bias currents (243mA at +10V) that were over 5 orders of magnitude higher than those for the junction formed on bulk ZnO. At ~ 10^-7 A (for 10V of reverse bias) the heterojunction leakage current was approximately two orders of magnitude lower on the bulk ZnO substrate than on FTO. Overall, the lateral p-NiO/n-ZnO/FTO/glass device proved far superior to that formed by growing p-NiO directly on the bulk n-ZnO substrate and gave a combination of electrical performance and visible wavelength transparency that could predispose it for use in various third generation transparent electronics applications.

17.	Self-Detecting Mid-Infrared Dual-Comb Spectroscopy Based on High-Speed Injection-Locked Quantum Cascade Lasers Yu Ma, Dapeng Wu, Ruixin Huang, Shichen Zhang, Binru Zhou, Zejun Ma, Yongqiang Sun, Junqi Liu, Ning Zhuo, Jinchuan Zhang, Shenqiang Zhai, Shuman Liu, Fengqi Liu, Manijeh Razeghi, and Quanyong Lu Adv. Photonics Res. 2500062 (2025) ...[Visit Journal] Dual-comb spectrometer based on quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) is gaining fast development and revolutionizing the precision measurement with high-frequency and temporal resolutions. In these measurements, high-bandwidth photodetectors are normally used for signal acquisition and processing, which complicates the measurement system. QCL is well-known for its picosecond gain-recovery time with an intrinsic bandwidth of tens of GHz. In this work, a compact self-detecting dual-comb spectroscopy (DCS) is demonstrated based on dispersion-engineered, high-speed packaged QCLs under coherent injection locking. The laser source is designed and fabricated into a hybrid-monolithic-integrated waveguide and epi-down packaged on a wideband-designed submount to fully explore the high-speed feature up to fourth-order harmonic state with a cutoff frequency of 40 GHz. The effective radio frequency (RF) injection locking diminishes the issue of optical feedback and enables high-bandwidth self-detection based on QCLs. Clear and stable multiheterodyne signal corresponding to a spectral range of 68 cm−1 and narrow comb tooth linewidth of ≈10 kHz is observed without using external detector or numerical process. The demonstrated broadband, high-power, self-detecting mid-infrared QCL DCS has a great potential for future applications of molecular sensing and spectroscopy. [reprint (PDF)]

The short-, extended-short-, and mid-wavelength channels’ 50% cutoff wavelengths were 2.3, 2.9, and 4.4μm, respectively, at 150K. The mid-wavelength channel exhibited a saturated quantum efficiency of 34% at 4μm under +200 mV bias voltage in a front-side illumination configuration and without any antireflection coating. At 200mV, the device exhibited a dark current density of 8.7×10⁻⁵ A/cm² providing a specific detectivity of ∼2×10¹¹ cm·Hz^1/2/W at 150K. The short-wavelength channel achieved a saturated quantum efficiency of 20% at 1.8μm. At −10 mV, the device’s dark current density was 5.5×10⁻⁸ A/cm². At zero bias, its specific detectivity was 1×10¹¹ cm·Hz^1/2/W at 150K. The extended short-wavelength channel achieved a saturated quantum efficiency of 22% at 2.75 μm. Under −2 V bias voltage, the device exhibited a dark current density of 1.8×10⁻⁶ A/cm² providing a specific detectivity of 6.3×10¹¹ cm·Hz^1/2/W at 150K. [reprint (PDF)]

Jürgensen, J. Selders, M. Razeghi, E. Kuphal; Deep Fe and intrinsic defect levels in Ga0.47In0.53As/InP. Appl. Phys. Lett. 1 February 1985; 46-- February 1, 1985 ...[Visit Journal] Two deep traps in Ga0.47In0.53As/InP:Fe at a depth of 110 meV and 150 meV, respectively, are observed for the first time using low‐temperature photoluminescence and deep level transient spectroscopy. The dependence of luminescence intensity on the growth process itself (liquid phase epitaxy, vapor phase epitaxy, and metalorganic chemical vapor deposition) and its parameters (growth temperature, layer thickness) and the substrate doping is reported and leads to the unambigous identification of the 150‐meV acceptorlike trap as being caused by Fe impurities. Fe diffuses from the substrate to the epitaxial layer during the growth process. This outdiffusion is less pronounced for layers grown at lower temperature. The level at 110 meV which is also observed in layers grown on InP:S substrate is tentatively assigned to an intrinsic defect of Ga0.47In0.53As. [reprint (PDF)]
