摘要: A device for detecting infrared radiation, includes at least one pixel having an axis in a direction Z, the pixel comprising a first absorbent planar structure comprising at least one semiconductor layer. The composition of the materials used to produce the at least one layer of the first absorbent planar structure is chosen such that: the first absorbent planar structure has an effective valence band formed by a plurality of energy levels. Each energy level is occupied by one of: a first type of positive charge carrier, called heavy holes, having a first effective mass; or a second type of positive charge carrier, called light holes, having a second effective mass strictly less than the first effective mass. The maximum energy level of the effective valence band is occupied by light holes along the axis of the pixel.

摘要: A device for detecting infrared radiation includes at least one pixel comprising: a first superlattice composed of the repetition of an elementary group comprising: a first layer having a first bandgap and a first conduction-band minimum; at least a second layer having a second bandgap and a second conduction-band minimum strictly lower than the first conduction-band minimum; a third layer having a third bandgap narrower than the first and second bandgaps and a third conduction-band minimum strictly lower than the second conduction-band minimum. The elementary group is produced in a first stacking configuration in the following order: the second layer, the third layer, the second layer, then the first layer; or in a second stacking configuration such that the third layer is confined between the first and second layers.

摘要: A process for fabricating a hybrid optical detector, includes the steps of: assembling, via an assembly layer, on the one hand an absorbing structure and on the other hand a read-out circuit, locally etching, through the absorbing structure, the assembly layer and the read-out circuit up to the contacts, so as to form electrical via-holes, depositing a protective layer on the walls of the via-holes, producing a doped region of a second doping type different from the first doping type by diffusing a dopant into the absorbing structure through the protective layer, the region extending annularly around the via-holes so as to form a diode, depositing a metallization layer on the walls of the via-holes allowing the doped region to be electrically connected to the contact.
