Abstract
A two-photon sequential absorption photocurrent generation process in modulation doped InAs/GaAs quantum dot (QD) is proposed and analyzed. Enhanced nonlinear absorption is expected due to the long excited sate lifetime. Ultra-low leakage current has been verified. A High photodetectivity of > 1011cmHz1/2/W can be obtained at 180K. The two-photon sequential absorption photocurrent generation process is promising to achieve thermal-electrically cooled long-wave infrared (LWIR 8-12μm) photodetector with high photodetectivity.
