摘要
红外光电探测器已经历了半个多世纪的发展,先后出现了机械扫描式单元及线列探测器和凝视型红外焦平面探测器两代探测器技术,并形成了一个庞大的红外探测器器件家族.近年来人们逐渐提出了以高探测率、大面阵、低成本、多光谱为技术特点的第三代红外探测器概念.锑化物红外探测材料以其具备的优越光电性能:量子效率高,暗电流小,微带带隙可调,均匀性高、成本低等,成为第三代红外焦平面探测器的最优选材料.本文回顾了近年来国内外第三代红外探测器材料与器件的研究发展历程,重点阐明了锑化物II类超晶格红外探测材料在技术上的优势及其国内外发展现状.通过分析个多个重点研究机构的技术发展历程,阐明了锑化物材料与器件研究的发展趋势,面临的挑战以及今后数年内该领域的研究重点.
Infrared photodetectors and technology have experienced half a century of development. Two generation detectors have appeared: the first generation is mechanical scanning unit or linear array detectors, the second-generation is staring focal plane array detectors. It has formed a huge family of infrared detectors. Recent years, people gradually raised to the technical concept of third-generation infrared detectors which have high detecivity, large formate, low-cost,and multi-spectral response. Antimonide based type-II InAs/GaSb superlattice has several fundamental properties that make it suitable for third-generation infrared detection technology: high quantum efficiency, low dark current density, tunable bandgap, high uniformity, and low cost. In this paper, we review the recent domestic and international research in third-generation infrared detector material and devices, and we focus on clarifying advantages of antimonide based type II superlattice material and the development status at home and abroad. By analyzing the technology development process in a number of key research institutions, we hope to clarify the challenges and research trends of antimonide material in the next few years.
