Carrier Dynamical Approaches to SiGe Quantum Well Infrared Photodetectors

Abstract

This report results from a contract tasking University of Leeds as follows: The contractor will investigate methods of improving SiGe quantum well infrared photodetectors by applying carrier dynamics. The goal of the contractor's research will be to set the foundation for the development of Si-based focal plane arrays for active and passive imaging in the mid- and long-wave infrared.
