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.

24.	Fabrication of 12 µm pixel-pitch 1280 × 1024 extended short wavelength infrared focal plane array using heterojunction type-II superlattice-based photodetector Arash Dehzangi , Abbas Haddadi, Romain Chevallier, Yiyun Zhang and Manijeh Razegh Semicond. 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. The large format FPA was fabricated with 12 μm pixel-pitch using a developed fabrication process. Test pixels fabricated separately exhibit 100% cut–off wavelengths of ∼2.22, ∼2.34μm, and ∼2.45μm at 150, 200K, and 300K. The test devices achieve saturated quantum efﬁciency values under zero bias of 54.3% and 68.4% at 150 and 300K, under back-side illumination and without any anti-reﬂection coating. At 150K, these photodetectors exhibit dark current density of 1.63 × 10⁻⁷ A·cm⁻² under −20mV applied bias providing a speciﬁc detectivity of 1.01 × 10¹¹ cm ·Hz^½/W at 1.9μm. [reprint (PDF)]

24.	Free-space optical communication using mid-infrared or solar-blind ultraviolet sources and detectors R. McClintock, A. Haddadi and M. Razeghi SPIE Proceedings, Vol. 8268, p. 826810-- January 22, 2012 ...[Visit Journal] Free-space optical communication is a promising solution to the “last mile” bottleneck of data networks. Conventional near infrared-based free-space optical communication systems suffer from atmospheric scattering losses and scintillation effects which limit the performance of the data links. Using mid-infrared, we reduce the scattering and thus can improve the quality of the data links and increase their range. Because of the low scattering, the data link cannot be intercepted without a complete or partial loss in power detected by the receiver. This type of communications provides ultra-high bandwidth and highly secure data transfer for both short and medium range data links. Quantum cascade lasers are one of the most promising sources for mid-wavelength infrared sources and Type-II superlattice photodetectors are strong candidates for detection in this regime. The same way that that low scattering makes mid-wavelength infrared ideal for secure free space communications,high scattering can be used for secure short-range free-space optical communications. In the solar-blind ultraviolet (< 280 nm) light is strongly scattered and absorbed. This scattering makes possible non-line-of-sight free-space optical communications. The scattering and absorption also prevent remote eavesdropping. III-Nitride based LEDs and photodetectors are ideal for non-line-of-sight free-space optical communication. [reprint (PDF)]
24.	Type-II InAs/GaSb Superlattices and Detectors with Cutoff Wavelength Greater Than 18 μm M. Razeghi, Y. Wei, A. Gin, G.J. Brown and D. Johnstone Proceedings of the SPIE, San Jose, CA, Vol. 4650, 111 (2002)-- January 25, 2002 ...[Visit Journal] The authors report the most recent advances in Type-II InAs/GaSb superlattice materials and photovoltaic detectors. Lattice mismatch between the substrate and the superlattice has been routinely achieved below 0.1%, and less than 0.0043% as the record. The FWHM of the zeroth order peak from x-ray diffraction has been decreased below 50 arcsec and a record of less than 44arcsec has been achieved. High performance detectors with 50% cutoff beyond 18 micrometers up to 26 micrometers have been successfully demonstrated. The detectors with a 50% cut-off wavelength of 18.8 micrometers showed a peak current responsivity of 4 A/W at 80K, and a peak detectivity of 4.5¹⁰ cm·Hz^½·W^-1 was achieved at 80K at a reverse bias of 110 mV under 300 K 2(pi) FOV background. Some detectors showed a projected 0% cutoff wavelength up to 28~30 micrometers .

24.	High brightness angled cavity quantum cascade lasers D. Heydari, Y. Bai, N. Bandyopadhyay, S. Slivken, and M. Razeghi Applied Physics Letters 106, 091105-- March 6, 2015 ...[Visit Journal] A quantum cascade laser (QCL) with an output power of 203 W is demonstrated in pulsed mode at 283 K with an angled cavity. The device has a ridge width of 300 μm, a cavity length of 5.8 mm, and a tilt angle of 12°. The back facet is high reflection coated, and the front facet is anti-reflection coated. The emitting wavelength is around 4.8 μm. In distinct contrast to a straight cavity broad area QCL, the lateral far field is single lobed with a divergence angle of only 3°. An ultrahigh brightness value of 156 MW cm²·sr^-1 is obtained, which marks the brightest QCL to date. [reprint (PDF)]
24.	Multi-color 4–20 μm In-P-based Quantum Well Infrared Photodetectors C. Jelen, S. Slivken, G.J. Brown, and M. Razeghi SPIE Conference, San Jose, CA, -- January 27, 1999 ...[Visit Journal] In order to tune the wavelength of lattice-matched QWIP detectors over the range from 4 - 20 &mum, new designs are demonstrated for the first time which combine InGaAlAs and InGaAsP layers lattice-matched to InP and grown by gas-source molecular beam epitaxy. We demonstrate the first long-wavelength quantum well infrared photodetectors using the lattice-matched n-doped InGaAlAs/InP materials system. Samples with AlAs mole fractions of 0.0, 0.1, and 0.15 result in cutoff wavelengths of 8.5, 13.3, and 19.4 μm, respectively. A 45 degree facet coupled illumination responsivity of R equals 0.37 A/W and detectivity of D*(λ) equals 1x10⁹ cm·Hz^½·W^-1 at T = 77 K, for a cutoff wavelength λ_c equals 13.3 μm have been achieved. Based on the measured intersubband photoresponse wavelength, a null conduction band offset is expected for In_0.52Ga_0.21Al_0.27As/InP heterojunctions. We also report quantum well infrared photodetector structures of In_0.53Ga_0.47As/Al_0.48In_0.52As grown on InP substrate with photoresponse at 4 μm suitable for mid-wavelength infrared detectors. These detectors exhibit a constant peak responsivity of 30 mA/W independent of temperature in the range from T equals 77 K to T equals 200 K. Combining these two materials, we report the first multispectral detectors that combine lattice-matched quantum wells of InGaAs/InAlAs and InGaAs/InP. Utilizing two contacts, a voltage tunable detector with (lambda) p equals 8 micrometer at a bias of V equals 5 V and λ_p equals 4 μm at V equals 10 V is demonstrated. [reprint (PDF)]

24.	High efficiency quantum cascade laser frequency comb Quanyong Lu, Donghai Wu, Steven Slivken & Manijeh Razeghi Scientific Reports 7, Article number: 43806-- March 6, 2017 ...[Visit Journal] An efficient mid-infrared frequency comb source is of great interest to high speed, high resolution spectroscopy and metrology. Here we demonstrate a mid-IR quantum cascade laser frequency comb with a high power output and narrow beatnote linewidth at room temperature. The active region was designed with a strong-coupling between the injector and the upper lasing level for high internal quantum efficiency and a broadband gain. The group velocity dispersion was engineered for efficient, broadband mode-locking via four wave mixing. The comb device exhibits a narrow intermode beatnote linewidth of 50.5 Hz and a maximum wall-plug efficiency of 6.5% covering a spectral coverage of 110 cm⁻¹ at λ ~ 8 μm. The efficiency is improved by a factor of 6 compared with previous demonstrations. The high power efficiency and narrow beatnote linewidth will greatly expand the applications of quantum cascade laser frequency combs including high-precision remote sensing and spectroscopy.

24.	Electro-thermal breakdown in p-NiO/n-Ga2O3 heterojunction power diodes: evidence for the role of heat extraction via sapphire S. Kubsky, Z. Berger, M. Chevrot, D. J. Rogers, V. E. Sandana, F. Hosseini Teherani, N. De France, M. Lesecq, Z. Bougrioua, M. Razeghi Proc. of SPIE Vol. PC13897, PC138970X · 2026 ...[Visit Journal] Gallium oxide (Ga₂O₃) is attracting strong interest for next-generation power electronics due to its ultra-wide bandgap and large critical breakdown field; however, device performance is frequently constrained by self-heating arising from its relatively low and anisotropic thermal conductivity. In this work, the electrical and thermal behaviour of p-NiO/n-Ga₂O₃ heterojunction diodes grown by pulsed laser deposition on r-plane sapphire substrates is investigated under high-bias operation. Identical ring-mesa devices were mounted either on a thermally insulating support or on a metal heat sink, enabling a direct comparison of electro-thermal behaviour. While both configurations exhibit rectifying I–V characteristics, heat-sunk devices show reduced surface temperature rise, suppressed reverse leakage, and a significantly higher breakdown voltage (~ +2150 V) compared with devices measured without effective heat extraction (~ +1600 V). The results demonstrate that electro-thermal runaway, rather than intrinsic junction limitations, governs breakdown in these thin-film Ga₂O₃ heterojunctions, highlighting thermal management and thermal boundary conditions as key design parameters for high-voltage Ga₂O₃ power devices.

24.	Techniques for High-Quality SiO₂ Films J. Nguyen and M. Razeghi SPIE Conference, January 25-29, 2007, San Jose, CA Proceedings – Quantum Sensing and Nanophotonic Devices IV, Vol. 6479, p. 64791K-1-8-- January 29, 2007 ...[Visit Journal] We report on the comparison of optical, structural, and electrical properties of SiO₂ using plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition and ion-beam sputtering deposition. High-quality, low-temperature deposition of SiO₂ by ion-beam sputtering deposition is shown to have lower absorption, smoother and more densely packed films, a lower amount of fixed oxide charges, and a lower trapped-interface density than SiO₂ by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition. This high-quality SiO₂ is then demonstrated as an excellent electrical and mechanical surface passivation layer on Type-II InAs/GaSb photodetectors [reprint (PDF)]
24.	Comprehensive study of blue and green multi-quantum-well light-emitting diodes grown on conventional and lateral epitaxial overgrowth GaN C. Bayram, J.L. Pau, R. McClintock and M. Razeghi Applied Physics B: Lasers and Optics, Vol. 95, p. 307-314-- November 29, 2008 ...[Visit Journal] Growths of blue and green multi-quantum wells (MQWs) and light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are realized on lateral epitaxial overgrowth (LEO) GaN, and compared with identical structures grown on conventional GaN. Atomic force microscopy is used to confirm the significant reduction of dislocations in the wing region of our LEO samples before active-region growth. Differences between surface morphologies of blue and green MQWs are analyzed. These MQWs are integrated into LEDs. All devices show a blue shift in the electroluminescence (EL) peak and narrowing in EL spectra with increasing injection current, both characteristics attributed to the band-gap renormalization. Green LEDs show a larger EL peak shift and a broader EL spectrum due to larger piezoelectric field and more indium segregation in the MQWs, respectively. Blue LEDs on LEO GaN show a higher performance than those on conventional GaN; however, no performance difference is observed for green LEDs on LEO GaN versus conventional GaN. The performance of the green LEDs is shown to be primarily limited by the active layer growth quality. [reprint (PDF)]

Empirical Tight Binding Method was initiated and developed for Type-II superlattice. A new Type-II structure, called M-structure, was introduced and theoretically demonstrated high R₀A, high quantum efficiency. Device design and growth condition were optimized to improve the performance. As a result, a 54% quantum efficiency, a 12 Ω·cm² R₀A were achieved for 11 µm cut-off photodetector at 77 K. Effective surface passivation techniques for MWIR and LWIR Type-II superlattice were developed. FPA imaging at MWIR and LWIR were demonstrated with a capability of imaging up to room temperature and 211 K respectively. The noise equivalent temperature difference presented a peak at 50 mK for MWIR FPA at 121 K and 26 mK for LWIR FPA at 81 K. [reprint (PDF)]
23.	Study of Phase Transition in MOCVD Grown Ga2O3 from κ to β Phase by Ex Situ and In Situ Annealing Junhee Lee, Honghyuk Kim, Lakshay Gautam, Kun He, Xiaobing Hu, Vinayak P. Dravid and Manijeh Razeghi Photonics 2021, 8, 17. https://doi.org/10.3390/ photonics8010017 ...[Visit Journal] We report the post-growth thermal annealing and the subsequent phase transition of Ga2O3 grown on c-plane sapphire substrates by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). We demonstrated the post-growth thermal annealing at temperatures higher than 900 °C under N2 ambience, by either in situ or ex situ thermal annealing, can induce phase transition from nominally metastable κ- to thermodynamically stable β-phase. This was analyzed by structural characterizations such as high-resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy and x-ray diffraction. The highly resistive as-grown Ga2O3 epitaxial layer becomes conductive after annealing at 1000 °C. Furthermore, we demonstrate that in situ annealing can lead to a crack-free β-Ga2O3. [reprint (PDF)]
23.	High Performance InAs/GaSb Superlattice Photodiodes for the Very Long Wavelength Infrared Range H. Mohseni, M. Razeghi, G.J. Brown, Y.S. Park Applied Physics Letters 78 (15)-- April 9, 2001 ...[Visit Journal] We report on the demonstration of high-performance p-i-n photodiodes based on type-II InAs/GaSb superlattices with 50% cut-off wavelength λ_c = 16 μm operating at 80 K. Material is grown by molecular beam epitaxy on GaSb substrates with excellent crystal quality as evidenced by x-ray diffraction and atomic force microscopy. The processed devices show a current responsivity of 3.5 A/W at 80 K leading to a detectivity of ∼ 1.51×10¹⁰ cm·Hz^½/W. The quantum efficiency of these devices is about 35% which is comparable to HgCdTe detectors with a similar active layer thickness. [reprint (PDF)]
23.	Two-dimensional magnetophonon resonance. I. GaInAs-InP superlattices J C Portal, J Cisowski, R J Nicholas, M A Brummell, M Razeghi and M A Poisson J C Portal et al 1983 J. Phys. C: Solid State Phys. 16 L573-- April 5, 1983 ...[Visit Journal] Magnetophonon resonance results are reported for two-dimensional electron gases confined in the GaInAs layers of GaInAs-InP superlattices. Two series of oscillations are observed: one due to scattering by the 'GaAs-like' LO phonon mode of GaInAs, and the second due to interaction with InP LO phonons. The strength of the latter series increases relative to the former as the GaInAs layer thickness is reduced. This is evidence for a long-range phonon interaction, with the InP phonon field extending into the GaInAs to couple significantly with the electrons bound in the quantum wells. No evidence of interface phonons is seen. [reprint (PDF)]
23.	High power, continuous wave, room temperature operation of λ ~ 3.4 μm and λ ~ 3.55 μm InP-based quantum cascade lasers N. Bandyopadhyay, S. Slivken, Y. Bai and M. Razeghi Applied Physics Letters, Vol. 100, No. 21, p. 212104-1-- May 21, 2012 ...[Visit Journal] We report two highly strain-balanced InP-based AlInAs/GaInAs quantum cascade lasers emitting near 3.39 and 3.56 . A pulsed threshold current density of only 1.1 kA/cm² has been achieved at room temperature for both lasers with characteristic temperatures (T₀) of 166 K and 152 K, respectively.

The laser array operates primarily via the in-phase supermode and has single-mode emission with a side-mode suppression ratio of ~20 dB. The quantum cascade laser active region is based on a high differential gain (8.7 cm/kA) and low voltage defect (90 meV) design.

23.	Shortwave quantum cascade laser frequency comb for multi-heterodyne spectroscopy Q. Y. Lu, S. Manna, D. H. Wu, S. Slivken, and M. Razeghi Applied Physics Letters 112, 141104-- April 3, 2018 ...[Visit Journal] Quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) are versatile light sources with tailorable emitting wavelengths covering the mid-infrared and terahertz spectral ranges. When the dispersion is minimized, frequency combs can be directly emitted from quantum cascade lasers via four-wave mixing. To date, most of the mid-infrared quantum cascade laser combs are operational in a narrow wavelength range wherein the QCL dispersion is minimal. In this work, we address the issue of very high dispersion for shortwave QCLs and demonstrate 1-W dispersion compensated shortwave QCL frequency combs at λ~5.0 μm, spanning a spectral range of 100 cm⁻¹. The multi-heterodyne spectrum exhibits 95 equally spaced frequency comb lines, indicating that the shortwave QCL combs are ideal candidates for high-speed high-resolution spectroscopy [reprint (PDF)]
23.	Polarization-free GaN emitters in the ultraviolet and visible spectra via heterointegration on CMOS-compatible Si (100) C. Bayram, J. Ott, K. T. Shiu, C. W. Cheng, Y. Zhu, J. Kim, D. K. Sadana, M. Razeghi Proc. SPIE 9370, Quantum Sensing and Nanophotonic Devices XII, 93702F -- February 8, 2015 ...[Visit Journal] This work presents a new type of polarization-free GaN emitter. The unique aspect of this work is that the ultraviolet and visible emission originates from the cubic phase GaN and the cubic phase InGaN/GaN multi-quantum-wells, respectively. Conventionally, GaN emitters (e.g. light emitting diodes, laser diodes) are wurtzite phase thus strong polarization fields exist across the structure contributing to the “droop” behavior – a phenomenon defined as “the reduction in emitter efficiency as injection current increases”. The elimination of piezoelectric fields in GaN-based emitters as proposed in this work provide the potential for achieving a 100% internal efficiency and might lead to droopfree light emitting diodes. In addition, this work demonstrates co-integration of GaN emitters on cheap and scalable CMOS-compatible Si (100) substrate, which yields possibility of realizing a GaN laser diode uniquely – via forming mirrors along the naturally occurring cubic phase GaN-Si(100) cleavage planes.

Razeghi SPIE Proceedings, Vol. 8631, p. 86311K-1, Photonics West, San Francisco, CA-- February 5, 2013 ...[Visit Journal] Active and passive imaging in a single camera based on the combination of short-wavelength and mid-wavelength infrared detection is highly needed in a number of tracking and reconnaissance missions. Due to its versatility in band-gap engineering, Type-II InAs/GaSb/AlSb superlattice has emerged as a candidate highly suitable for this multi-spectral detection. In this paper, we report the demonstration of high performance bias-selectable dual-band short-/mid-wavelength infrared photodetectors based on InAs/GaSb/AlSb type-II superlattice with designed cut-off wavelengths of 2 μm and 4 μm. Taking advantages of the high performance short-wavelength and mid-wavelength single color photodetectors, back-to-back p-i-n-n-i-p photodiode structures were grown on GaSb substrate by molecular beam epitaxy. At 150 K, the short-wave channel exhibited a quantum efficiency of 55%, a dark current density of 1.0x10^-9 A/cm² at -50 mV bias voltage, providing an associated shot noise detectivity of 3.0x10¹³ Jones. The mid-wavelength channel exhibited a quantum efficiency of 33% and a dark current density of 2.6x10^-5 A/cm² at 300 mV bias voltage, resulting in a detectivity of 4.0x10¹¹ Jones. The operations of the two absorber channels are selectable by changing the polarity of applied bias voltage. [reprint (PDF)]
