    摘要: Radiation-induced effects discovered in layered structures of conductor and semiconductor materials are utilized in radiation-sensitive devices such as, e.g., highly linear as well as highly nonlinear position sensors. Such devices includes a structure of alternating layers of conductor and semiconductor materials, and electrical contacts are provided between which a radiation-induced voltage appears. Among suitable layer materials are silicon and titanium, and resulting devices are sensitive to electromagnetic as well as to particle radiation.

    摘要: Quantum well infrared photodetectors (QWIPs) according to the invention have a surface that provides pseudo-random reflection of the radiation that is incident thereon, resulting in an increase in the effective number of passes of the radiation through the quantum well region, and hence in increased responsivity of the QWIPs, as compared to corresponding prior art grating QWIPs. A convenient approach to forming the pseudo-random reflecting surface is disclosed.
