Abstract

The strain-balanced InAsP/InP/InGaAs multiple quantum well (MQW) structures for mid-wavelength-infrared photodetectors are presented. The MQW consists of 42% strained InAsP wells, InP barriers and 2% strained InGaAs layers, where the strained InP/InAsP/InP quantum wells provide a light-absorbing layer and the strain is entirely compensated by introducing thin strained InGaAs layers.
