6. | 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. [reprint (PDF)] |

Sci. Technol. 34, 03LT01-- February 4, 2019 ...[Visit Journal] We present an initial demonstration of a 1280 × 1024 extended short-wavelength infrared focal plane array (FPA) imager with 12μm pixel-pitch based on type–II InAs/AlSb/GaSb superlattice heterojunction photodetectors, with a novel bandstructure-engineered photo-generated carrier extractor as the window layer in the hetero structure to efficiently extract the photo-generated carriers. This heterostructure with a larger bandgap top window/contact layer leads to the device having lower dark current density compared to conventional pn junction devices.

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. | High performance photodiodes based on InAs/InAsSb type-II superlattices for very long wavelength infrared detection A. M. Hoang, G. Chen, R. Chevallier, A. Haddadi, and M. Razeghi Appl. Phys. Lett. 104, 251105 (2014)-- June 23, 2014 ...[Visit Journal] Very long wavelength infrared photodetectors based on InAs/InAsSb Type-II superlattices are demonstrated on GaSb substrate.

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. | III-Nitride/Ga2O3 heterostructure for future power electronics: opportunity and challenges Nirajman Shrestha, Jun Hee Lee, F. H. Teherani, Manijeh Razeghi Proc. of SPIE Vol. 12895, Quantum Sensing and Nano Electronics and Photonics XX, 128950B (28 January - 1 February 2024, San Francisco)http://dx.doi.org/10.1117/12.3011688 ...[Visit Journal] Ga2O3 has become the new focal point of high-power semiconductor device research due to its superior capability
to handle high voltages in smaller dimensions and with higher efficiencies compared to other commercialized
semiconductors. However, the low thermal conductivity of the material is expected to limit device performance. To
compensate for the low thermal conductivity of Ga2O3 and to achieve a very high density 2-dimensional electron
gas (2DEG), an innovative idea is to combine Ga2O3 with III-Nitrides (which have higher thermal conductivity),
such as AlN. However, metal-polar AlN/β-Ga2O3 heterojunction provides type-II heterojunction which are
beneficial for optoelectronic application, because of the negative value of specific charge density. On the other
hand, N-polar AlN/β- Ga2O3 heterostructures provide higher 2DEG concentration and larger breakdown voltage
compared to conventional AlGaN/GaN devices. This advancement would allow the demonstration of RF power
transistors with a 10x increase in power density compared to today’s State of the Art (SoA) and provide a solution
to size, weight, and power-constrained applications [reprint (PDF)] |

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/InAs1-xSbx 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.

Razeghi IEEE Journal of Quantum Electronics, Vol. 45, No. 2, p. 157-162.-- February 1, 2009 ...[Visit Journal] The recent introduction of a M-structure design improved both the dark current and R0A performances of Type-II InAs-GaSb photodiodes. A focal plane array fabricated with this design was characterized at 81 K. The dark current of individual pixels was measured between 1.1 and 1.6 nA, 7 times lower than previous superlattice FPAs. This led to a higher dynamic range and longer integration times. The quantum efficiency of detectors without antireflective coating was 74%.

4. | Effect of the spin split-off band on optical absorption in p-type Ga1 xInxAsyP1-y quantum-well infrared detectors J.R. Hoff, M. Razeghi and G. Brown Physical Review B 54 (15)-- October 15, 1996 ...[Visit Journal] Experimental investigations of p-type Ga1-xInxAsyP1-y quantum-well intersubband photodetectors (QWIP’s) led to the discovery of unique features in photoresponse spectra of these devices. In particular, the strong 2–5 μm photoresponse of these QWIP’s was not anticipated based on previous experimental and theoretical results for p-type GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs QWIP’s. Our theoretical modeling of p-type QWIP’s based on the Ga1-xInxAsyP1-y system revealed that the intense short-wavelength photoresponse was due to a much stronger coupling to the spin-orbit split-off components in the continuum than occurs for GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs QWIP’s. Due to the strong influence of the spin split-off band, an eight-band Kane Hamiltonian was required to accurately model the measured photoresponse spectra. This theoretical model is first applied to a standard p-type GaAs/Al0.3Ga0.7As QWIP, and then to a series of GaAs/Ga0.51In0.49P, GaAs/Ga0.62In0.38As0.22P0.78, Ga0.79In0.21As0.59P0.41/Ga0.51In0.49P, and Ga0.79In0.21As0.59P0.41/Ga0.62In0.38As0.22P0.78 QWIP’s. Through this analysis, the insignificance of spin split-off absorption in GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs QWIP’s is verified, as is the dual role of light-hole extended-state and spin split-off hole-extended-state absorption on the spectral shape of Ga1-xInxAsyP1-y QWIP’s.

At 150 K, the photodetector exhibited a dark current density of 9.5 × 10−9 A/cm² and a quantum efficiency of 50%, resulting in a detectivity of 1.12 × 1013 Jones. [reprint (PDF)] |
4. | Room temperature terahertz semiconductor frequency comb Quanyong Lu, Feihu Wang, Donghai Wu, Steven Slivken & Manijeh Razeghi Nature Communications 10, 2403-- June 3, 2019 ...[Visit Journal] A terahertz (THz) frequency comb capable of high-resolution measurement will significantly
advance THz technology application in spectroscopy, metrology and sensing. The recently
developed cryogenic-cooled THz quantum cascade laser (QCL) comb has exhibited great
potentials with high power and broadband spectrum. Here, we report a room temperature
THz harmonic frequency comb in 2.2 to 3.3 THz based on difference-frequency generation
from a mid-IR QCL. The THz comb is intracavity generated via down-converting a mid-IR
comb with an integrated mid-IR single mode based on distributed-feedback grating without
using external optical elements. The grating Bragg wavelength is largely detuned from the
gain peak to suppress the grating dispersion and support the comb operation in the high gain
spectral range. Multiheterodyne spectroscopy with multiple equally spaced lines by beating it
with a reference Fabry-Pérot comb confirms the THz comb operation. This type of THz comb
