Strained Layer Superlattices (SLS) Technology

Abstract

This effort investigates and improves III-V material (materials formed by a combination of elements from group III and V of the periodic table) thin film crystal growth of IR FPAs using a very flexible Strained Layer Superlattice (SLS) structure. This will allow high performance multi band infrared FPAs to be produced at much lower costs than the existing II-VI FPAs (Mercury Cadmium Telluride) and can leverage commercial product research and production lines, including cell phone chips, to improve uniformity related to performance.
