Landau-level lifetimes are determined from saturation cyclotron resonance (CR) in wide parabolic wells, quantum wells and bulk PbTe–Pb1−xEuxTe systems. These narrow gap structures exhibit strong band non-parabolicity necessary to terminate the normally equi-spaced Landau-level ladder. It was not possible to saturate the bulk sample, but short lifetimes, of between 1.5 and 8 ps, were obtained for the wide parabolic well and the quantum well, respectively, utilising a multi-level rate equation model. We also report the first pump–probe cyclotron resonance result in an InAs–AlSb quantum structure. The pump–probe experiment provides a direct determination of the lifetime, giving τ=40 ps in this InAs–AlSb sample. This shows good agreement with an 8×8k·p calculation. 相似文献

Conventional multiview imaging systems commonly utilize a planar lenslet array and a rigid, flat image sensor in the pickup stage to capture different views of the scene. In this Letter, we remove this constraint by proposing the concept of three-dimensional (3D) imaging with detector arrays that may conform to arbitrarily shaped surfaces or platforms. A nonplanar detector array configuration can be used in combination with a flexible lenslet array to capture different views. The orientation and optical axes of individual image sensing elements could vary. A point-by-point 3D reconstruction algorithm is described and the feasibility of the proposed approach is demonstrated through simulated imagery. 相似文献

Off-set and integral cold shields are compared for cold shield shading effects when used with frontside and backside irradiated IR arrays. The integral cold shield, within its range of application, eliminates cold shield shading for frontside arrays and is more desirable. For backside arrays, off-set cold shield shading can be significantly reduced to tolerable levels when the array is prepared on thick transparent substrates. For these arrays, the integral cold shield is more difficult to implement and thus less desirable than the off-set cold shield. 相似文献

We have demonstrated the use of bulk antimonide based materials and type-II antimonide based superlattices in the development of large area mid-wavelength infrared (MWIR) focal plane arrays (FPAs). Barrier infrared photodetectors (BIRDs) and superlattice-based infrared photodetectors are expected to outperform traditional III–V MWIR and LWIR imaging technologies and are expected to offer significant advantages over II–VI material based FPAs. We have used molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) technology to grow InAs/GaSb superlattice pin photodiodes and bulk InAsSb structures on GaSb substrates. The coupled quantum well superlattice device offers additional control in wavelength tuning via quantum well sizes and interface composition, while the BIRD structure allows for device fabrication without additional passivation. As a demonstration of the large area imaging capabilities of this technology, we have fabricated mid-wavelength 1024 × 1024 pixels superlattice imaging FPAs and 640 × 512 MWIR arrays based on the BIRD concept. These initial FPA have produced excellent infrared imagery. 相似文献

We report on the development of high performance focal plane arrays for the mid-wavelength infrared spectral range from 3–5 μm (MWIR) on the basis of InAs/GaSb superlattice photodiodes. An investigation on the minority electron diffusion length with a set of six sample ranging from 190 to 1000 superlattice periods confirms that InAs/GaSb superlattice focal plane arrays achieve very high external quantum efficiency. This enabled the fabrication of a range of monospectral MWIR imagers with high spatial and excellent thermal resolution at short integration times. Furthermore, novel dual-color imagers have been developed, which offer advanced functionality due to a simultaneous, pixel-registered detection of two separate spectral channels in the MWIR. 相似文献

The application of detector arrays for the estimation of optical beam position is considered. An estimation algorithm is synthesised, and estimator performance is analysed. Estimator performance depends on the number of detectors in the array and on the received radiation and its associated shot noise. It is shown that by choosing an appropriate number of detectors in the array, the designer can always drive the estimator into shot-noise-limited operation. In this case, the performance may be either quantum-limited or background-noise limited, depending on the energy of the optical beam and on the background field. 相似文献

Estimation of a target azimuth by means of arrays of optical detectors is investigated. A maximum likelihood algorithm of estimation is developed, and simpler suboptimum algorithms are described. The performance of the maximum likelihood estimator is analysed. It is shown that for a small detector beamwidth the array accuracy becomes an oscillating function of the target azimuth. The minimum accuracyà depends on the detector beamwidth and onN, the number of detectors in the array. The largerN, the largerÃ; with a givenN, the optimum beamwidth which provides maximum accuracy can be found. The optimum beamwidth implies 100% overlapping of the detector beams, i.e., the semiangle of detector sensitivity should equal the angular separation of the detectors. 相似文献

Recent advances made in the field of pulsed laser deposited superlattices made up of perovskite oxides are reviewed. The superconducting properties and the effect of adjacent layers in ultra-thin YBCO are studied in YBCO/(PrxY1−x)BCO superlattices. We describe the effects of layering in (La0.7Ba0.3)MnO3for the purposes of fundamental studies and possible applications of these newly recognized colossal magnetoresistance materials. 相似文献

Lenticular array products have experienced a growing interest in the last decade due to the very wide range of applications they can cover. Indeed, this kind of lenses can create different effects on a viewing image such as 3D, flips, zoom, etc. In this sense, lenticular based on liquid crystals (LC) technology is being developed with the aim of tuning the lens profiles simply by controlling the birefringence electrically. In this work, a LC lenticular lens array has been proposed to mimic a GRIN lenticular lens array but adding the capability of tuning their lens profiles. Comb control electrodes have been designed as pattern masks for the ITO on the upper substrate. Suitable high resistivity layers have been chosen to be deposited on the control electrode generating an electric field gradient between teeth of the same electrode. Test measurements have allowed us to demonstrate that values of phase retardations and focal lengths, for an optimal driving waveform, are fairly in agreement. In addition, results of focusing power of tuneable lenses were compared to those of conventional lenses. The behaviour of both kinds of lenses has revealed to be mutually similar for focusing collimated light and for refracting images. 相似文献

Nonlinear optical response of periodic ZnSe/ZnS heterostructures is reported using interband excitation of a ZnSe sublattice by nano-, pico- and femtosecond laser pulses. A considerable shift of the reflection spectrum and large relative reflection changes were observed in a wide spectral range corresponding to the transparency region of ZnSe far from the intrinsic absorption onset. Evaluated refraction-index change is about −0.05 with the relaxation time being about 3 ps. In the case of femtosecond excitation, a wide-band nonlinear response is observed for both one-photon near-UV and two-photon near-IR excitation. The nonlinear refraction is supposed to be controlled by population-induced absorption changes in ZnSe single crystals and relevant refraction-index modification via Kramers–Kronig relations. The nonlinearity relaxation time is supposed to trace a transition from a non-equilibrium to a quasi-equilibrium distribution of electrons and holes within ZnSe conduction and valence bands, respectively, rather than the electron–hole recombination time. The nonlinearity mechanism does not reduce to just population-dependent absorption saturation, but essentially results from the specific distribution function in the first instance after excitation. 相似文献

We have constructed and used two dimensional arrays of both unstressed and stressed Ge:Ga photoconductive detectors for far-infrared astronomy from the Kuiper Airborne Observatory (KAO). The 25 element (5×5) arrays are designed for a new cryogenically cooled spectrometer, the MPE/UCB Far-Infrared Imaging Fabry-Perot Interferometer (FIFI). All of the pixels for the stressed array performed well on the first flights with FIFI; 25% of the detectors in the array are more sensitive than our best single element detector, with background limited noise equivalent powers (NEPs)3.0×10–15 W Hz–1/2 at 158 m and 40 km s–1 spectral resolution. The average array element performs within±15% of this value. With a bias field of 0.1 V/cm, the average detector response is 20±6 Amp/Watt at 158 m. The cutoff wavelength and response also compare well with our single element detectors. The unstressed array delivers significantly better performance than our single element detector due to the lower thermal background in the new spectrometer. The average background limited NEp at 88 m and 35 km s–1 spectral resolution is 7×10–15 W Hz–1/2. The least sensitive pixel is only 40% less sensitive. The unstressed array response at 88 m with a bias field of 1 V/cm is 5±1 Amp/Watt. Twenty four of the 25 elements worked on the first flights-on subsequent flights all channels have worked. Some of the exciting new science possible with far-infrared detector arrays is also discussed. 相似文献

An ultra-broadband perfect absorber consisting of cascaded nanodisk arrays is demonstrated by placing insulator-metal-insulator-metal nanodisks on insulator-metal film stacks. The absorber shows over 90% absorption in a wavelength range between 600 nm and 4000 nm under transverse magnetic (TM) polarization, with an average absorptivity of 91.5% and a relative absorption bandwidth of 147.8%. The analysis of the electric field and magnetic field show that the synergy of localized surface plasmons, propagating surface plasmons, and plasmonic resonant cavity modes leads to the ultra-broadband perfect absorption, which accords well with the results of impedance-matched analysis. The influences of structural parameters and different metal materials on absorption performance are discussed. Furthermore, the absorber is polarization-independent, and the absorption remains more than 90% at a wide incident angle up to 40° under TE polarization and TM polarization. The designed ultra-broadband absorber has promising prospects in photoelectric detection and imaging. 相似文献
