6.	Continuous wave quantum cascade lasers with 5.6 W output power at room temperature and 41% wall-plug efficiency in cryogenic operation F. Wang, S. Slivken, D. H. Wu, Q. Y. Lu, and M. Razeghi AIP Advances 10, 055120-- May 19, 2020 ...[Visit Journal] In this paper, we report a post-polishing technique to achieve nearly complete surface planarization for the buried ridge regrowth processing of quantum cascade lasers.

5.	Extended short-wavelength infrared nBn photodetectors based on type-II InAs/AlSb/GaSb superlattices with an AlAsSb/GaSb superlattice barrier A. Haddadi, R. Chevallier, A. Dehzangi, and M. Razeghi Applied Physics Letters 110, 101104-- March 8, 2017 ...[Visit Journal] Extended short-wavelength infrared nBn photodetectors based on type-II InAs/AlSb/GaSb superlattices on GaSb substrate have been demonstrated.

5.	Comparison of PLD-Grown p-NiO/n-Ga2O3 Heterojunctions on Bulk Single Crystal β-Ga2O3 and r-plane Sapphire Substrates D. J. Rogers , V. E. Sandana, F. Hosseini Teherani and M. Razeghi Proc. of SPIE Vol. 12895, Quantum Sensing and Nano Electronics and Photonics XX, 128870J (28 January - 1 February 2024 San Francisco)doi: 10.1117/12.3012511 ...[Visit Journal] p-NiO/n-Ga2O3 heterostructures were formed on single crystal (-201) β (monoclinic) Ga2O3 and r-sapphire substrates by Pulsed Laser Deposition. Ring mesa layer stacks were created using a shadow mask during growth. X-Ray diffraction studies were consistent with the formation of (111) oriented fcc NiO on the bulk Ga2O3 and randomly oriented fcc NiO on (102) oriented β-Ga2O3 /r-sapphire. RT optical transmission studies revealed bandgap energy values of ~3.65 eV and ~5.28 eV for the NiO and Ga2O3 on r-sapphire. p-n junction devices were formed by depositing gold contacts on the layer stacks using shadow masks in a thermal evaporator. Both heterojunctions showed rectifying I/V characteristics. On bulk Ga2O, the junction showed a current density over 16mA/cm2 at +20V forward bias and a reverse bias leakage current over 3 orders of magnitude lower at -20V (1 pA). On Ga2O3/r-sapphire the forward bias current density at +15V was about an order of magnitude lower than for the p-NiO/bulk n-Ga2O3 heterojunction while the reverse bias leakage current at -15V (~ 20 pA) was an order of magnitude higher. Hence the NiO/bulk Ga2O3 junction was more rectifying. Upon illumination with a Xenon lamp a distinct increase in current was observed for the IV curves in both devices (four orders of magnitude for -15V reverse bias in the case of the p-NiO/bulk n-Ga2O3 heterojunction). The p-NiO/n-Ga2O3/rsapphire junction gave a spectral responsivity with a FWHM value of 80nm and two distinct response peaks (with maxima at 230 and 270nm) which were attributed to carriers being photogenerated in the Ga2O3 underlayer. For both devices time response studies showed a 10%/90% rise and fall of the photo generated current upon shutter open and closing which was relatively abrupt (millisecond range), and there was no evidence of significant persistent photoconductivity.

5.	Dark current reduction in microjunction-based compound electron barrier type-II InAs/InAs1-xSbx superlattice-based long-wavelength infrared photodetectors Romain Chevallier, Abbas Haddadi, Manijeh Razeghi Proc. SPIE 10540, Quantum Sensing and Nano Electronics and Photonics XV Page. 1054007-1-- January 26, 2018 ...[Visit Journal] Reduction of dark current density in microjunction-based InAs/InAs_1-xSb_x type-II superlattice long-wavelength infrared photodetectors was demonstrated. A double electron barrier design was used to suppress both generation-recombination and surface dark currents. The photodetectors exhibited high surface resistivity after passivation with SiO₂, which permits the use of small size features without having strong surface leakage current degrading the electrical performance. Fabricating a microjunction structure (25×25 μm² mesas with 10×10 μm² microjunctions) with this photodetector double barrier design results in a dark current density of 6.3×10^-6 A/cm² at 77 K. The device has an 8 μm cut-off wavelength at 77 K and exhibits a quantum efficiency of 31% for a 2 μm-thick absorption region, which results in a specific detectivity value of 1.2×10¹² cm·Hz^1/2/W at 77 K.

5.	Advances in mid-infrared detection and imaging: a key issues review Manijeh Razeghi and Binh-Minh Nguyen Rep. Prog. Phys. 77 (2014) 082401-- August 4, 2014 ...[Visit Journal] It has been over 200 years since people recognized the presence of infrared radiation, and developed methods to capture this signal. However, current material systems and technologies for infrared detections have not met the increasing demand for high performance infrared detectors/cameras, with each system having intrinsic drawbacks. Type-II InAs/GaSb superlattice has been recently considered as a promising candidate for the next generation of infrared detection and imaging. Type-II superlattice is a man-made crystal structure, consisting of multiple quantum wells placed next to each other in a controlled way such that adjacent quantum wells can interact. The interaction between multiple quantum wells offers an additional degree of freedom in tailoring the material's properties. Another advantage of type-II superlattice is the experimental benefit of inheriting previous research on material synthesis and device fabrication of bulk semiconductors. It is the combination of these two unique strengths of type-II superlattice—novel physics and easy manipulation—that has enabled unprecedented progress in recent years. In this review, we will describe historical development, and current status of type-II InAs/GaSb superlattice for advanced detection and imaging in the mid-infrared regime (λ = 3–5 µm).

5.	Room-temperature continuous wave operation of distributed feedback quantum cascade lasers with watt-level power output Q.Y. Lu, Y. Bai, N. Bandyopadhyay, Sl Slivken, and M. Razeghi Applied Physics Letters, Vol. 97, No. 23, p. 231119-1-- December 6, 2010 ...[Visit Journal] We demonstrate surface-grating distributed feedback quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) with a watt-level power output at 4.75 μm.

Single-mode operation with a side mode suppression ratio of 30 dB is obtained in the working temperature of 15–105 °C. A double-lobed far field with negligible beam steering is observed. The significance of this demonstration lies in its simplicity and readiness to be applied to standard QCL wafers with the promise of high-power performances. [reprint (PDF)]
5.	Room Temperature, Continuous Wave Quantum Cascade Laser Grown Directly on a Si Wafer Steven Slivken and Manijeh Razeghi S. Slivken and M. Razeghi,, Journal of Quantum Electronics, Vol. 59, No. 4, doi: 10.1109/JQE.2023.3282710 ...[Visit Journal] We report the room temperature demonstration of a high power, continuous wave, LWIR quantum cascade laser grown directly on a Si substrate.

5.	Use of Yttria-Stabilised Zirconia Substrates for Zinc Oxide Mediated Epitaxial Lift-off of Superior Yttria-Stabilised Zirconia Thin Films D. J. Rogers, T. Maroutian, V. E. Sandana, P. Lecoeur, F. H. Teherani, P. Bove and M. Razeghi Proc. of SPIE Vol. 12887, Oxide-based Materials and Devices XV, 128870P 2024, San Francisco),doi: 10.1117/12.3023431 ...[Visit Journal] ZnO layers were grown on (100) and (111) oriented YSZ substrates by pulsed laser deposition (PLD). X-ray diffraction studies revealed growth of wurtzite ZnO with strong preferential (0002) orientation. The ZnO layer on YSZ (111) showed distinct Pendellosung fringes and a more pronounced c-axis orientation (rocking curve of 0.08°). Atomic force microscopy revealed RMS roughnesses of 0.7 and 2.2nm for the ZnO on the YSZ (111) and YSZ (100), respectively. YSZ was then grown on the ZnO buffered YSZ (111) substrate by PLD. XRD revealed that the YSZ overlayer grew with a strong preferential (111) orientation. The YSZ/ZnO/YSZ (111) top surface was temporary bonded to an Apiezon wax carrier and the sample was immersed in 0.1M HCl so as to preferentially etch/dissolve away the ZnO underlayer and release the YSZ from the substrate. XRD revealed only the characteristic (111) peak of YSZ after lift-off and thus confirmed both the dissolution of the ZnO and the preservation of the crystallographic integrity of the YSZ on the wax carrier. Optical and Atomic Force Microscopy revealed some buckling, roughening and cracking of the lifted YSZ, however. XRD suggested that this may have been due to compressive epitaxial strain release.

5.	High-Performance InP-Based Mid-IR Quantum Cascade Lasers M. Razeghi IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics, Vol. 15, No. 3, May-June 2009, p. 941-951.-- June 5, 2009 ...[Visit Journal] Quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) were once considered as inefficient devices, as the wall-plug efficiency (WPE) was merely a few percent at room temperature. But this situation has changed in the past few years, as dramatic enhancements to the output power andWPE have been made for InP-based mid-IR QCLs. Room temperature continuous-wave (CW) output power as high as 2.8 W and WPE as high as 15% have now been demonstrated for individual devices. Along with the fundamental exploration of refining the design and improving the material quality, a consistent determination of important device performance parameters allows for strategically addressing each component that can be improved potentially. In this paper, we present quantitative experimental evidence backing up the strategies we have adopted to improve the WPE for QCLs with room temperature CW operation. [reprint (PDF)]

5.	High Power Mid-Infrared Quantum Cascade Lasers Grown on Si Steven Slivken, Nirajman Shrestha, and Manijeh Razeghi Photonics, vol. 9, 626 ...[Visit Journal] This article details the demonstration of a strain-balanced, InP-based mid-infrared quantum cascade laser structure that is grown directly on a Si substrate. This is facilitated by the creation of a metamorphic buffer layer that is used to convert from the lattice constant of Si (0.543 nm) to that of InP (0.587 nm). The laser geometry utilizes two top contacts in order to be compatible with future large-scale integration. Unlike previous reports, this device is capable of room temperature operation with up to 1.6 W of peak power. The emission wavelength at 293 K is 4.82 um, and the device operates in the fundamental transverse mode. [reprint (PDF)]
5.	High Power Mid-Infrared Quantum Cascade Lasers Grown on GaAs Steven Slivken and Manijeh Razeghi Photonics 2022, 9(4), 231 (COVER ARTICLE) ...[Visit Journal] The motivation behind this work is to show that InP-based intersubband lasers with high power can be realized on substrates with significant lattice mismatch. This is a primary concern for the integration of mid-infrared active optoelectronic devices on low-cost photonic platforms, such as Si. As evidence, an InP-based mid-infrared quantum cascade laser structure was grown on a GaAs substrate, which has a large (4%) lattice mismatch with respect to InP. Prior to laser core growth, a metamorphic buffer layer of InP was grown directly on a GaAs substrate to adjust the lattice constant. Wafer characterization data are given to establish general material characteristics. A simple fabrication procedure leads to lasers with high peak power (>14 W) at room temperature. These results are extremely promising for direct quantum cascade laser growth on Si substrates. [reprint (PDF)]

Dravid and Dimitris Pavlidis Photonics 2021, 8(12), 578; ...[Visit Journal] Gallium oxide (Ga2O3) thin films of various thicknesses were grown on sapphire (0001) substrates by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) using trimethylgallium (TMGa), high purity deionized water, and silane (SiH4) as gallium, oxygen, and silicon precursors, respectively. N2 was used as carrier gas. Hall measurements revealed that films grown with a lower VI/III ratio had a dominant p-type conduction with room temperature mobilities up to 7 cm2/Vs and carrier concentrations up to ~1020 cm−3 for thinner layers. High resolution transmission electron microscopy suggested that the layers were mainly κ phase. Microstrip field-effect transistors (FETs) were fabricated using 2D p-type Ga2O3:Si, channels. They achieved a maximum drain current of 2.19 mA and an on/off ratio as high as ~108. A phenomenological model for the p-type conduction was also presented. As the first demonstration of a p-type Ga2O3, this work represents a significant advance which is state of the art, which would allow the fabrication of p-n junction based devices which could be smaller/thinner and bring both cost (more devices/wafer and less growth time) and operating speed (due to miniaturization) advantages. Moreover, the first scaling down to 2D device channels opens the prospect of faster devices and improved heat evacuation [reprint (PDF)]

We have demonstrated the damage-free transfer of T2SL-based thin-films to sapphire substrate using top–down processing and a chemical epilayer release technique. After transfer the −3 dB cut-off frequency increased from 6.4 GHz to 17.2 GHz, for 8 μm diameter circular mesas under -15 V applied bias. We also investigated the cut-off frequency verses applied bias and lateral scaling to assess the limitations for even higher frequency performance. Direct Link [reprint (PDF)]
