Abstract:
Quantum well infrared photodetectors (QWIPs) have many advantages in infrared detection, mainly due to the mature III-V material technology. The employment of the corrugated light-coupling scheme further improves the technology for its simplicity and efficiency. A C-QWIP enjoys the same flexibility as a detector with intrinsic normal incident absorption. In this chapter, we will discuss the sensitivity of C-QWIPs and their utilities in infrared detection, material characterization and electromagnetic modeling. Besides the standard corrugated structures, other exploratory detector architectures will also be described.

Abstract:
The integration of narrow-band and spectral detection capabilities on pixel-level detectors is widely expected for compact infrared gas detection. This imposes great challenges on the detector performance, as the device response must precisely match with the gas absorption spectrum while also collecting enough signals in a limited spectral range to maintain high detection sensitivity. In this paper, a pixel-level narrow-band high quantum efficiency metal microcavity quantum well infrared photodetector (MC-QWIP) working around 10.6 μm is designed and fabricated. The device shows good narrow-band characteristics (200–550 nm) and high peak responsivity (at least eight times stronger than the reference device with 45° edge facet). The results of experiments and numerical simulations show that several different resonance modes with peak wavelengths close to the intrinsic detection wavelength can be obtained by changing the width of the microcavity. The response bandwidth of the device can be controlled by changing resonance modes, while the resonant wavelength can be fine-tuned by the width of the microcavity. This indicates that the MC-QWIP device has good prospects in narrow-band gas detection and narrow-band differential detection.

Abstract:
AbstractThe superconducting nanowire single-photon detector (SNSPD) is a quantum-limit superconducting optical detector based on the Cooper-pair breaking effect by a single photon, which exhibits a higher detection efficiency, lower dark count rate, higher counting rate, and lower timing jitter when compared with those exhibited by its counterparts. SNSPDs have been extensively applied in quantum information processing, including quantum key distribution and optical quantum computation. In this review, we present the requirements of single-photon detectors from quantum information, as well as the principle, key metrics, latest performance issues, and other issues associated with SNSPD. The representative applications of SNSPDs with respect to quantum information will also be covered.

Abstract:
GaN-based quantum well infrared detectors can make up for the weakness of GaAs-based quantum well infrared detectors for short-wave infrared detection. In this work, GaN/AlN (1.8 nm/1.8 nm) multi-quantum wells have been epitaxially grown on sapphire substrate using MBE technology. Meanwhile, based on this device structure, the band positions and carrier distributions of a single quantum well are also calculated. At room temperature, the optical response of the device is 58.6 μA/W with a bias voltage of 0.5 V, and the linearity between the optical response and the laser power is R2 = 0.99931. This excellent detection performance can promote the research progress of GaN-based quantum well infrared detectors in the short-wave infrared field.

Abstract:
Several aspects of the theory of plasmon resonant DC photoconduction are discussed here, in connection with recent observations involving a THz-irradiated grid-gated double-quantum-well FET.1 In this, we construct a classical model of nonlinear polarizability to second order in the THz field using a “hydrodynamic” type formulation including the roles of a stress-tensor and friction/viscosity. The resulting second order polarizability exhibits resonant behavior when the THz frequency matches plasmon frequencies of the system, sharply reducing the effectiveness of screened impurity scattering potentials which can admit resonant DC photoconduction. Furthermore, we also show that an asymmetric double-quantum-well system with lateral periodicity can mix optical and acoustic plasmons, giving rise to an interlayer THz field which becomes very strong when tuned by gate voltage into the “mode-mode-repulsion” regime wherein the optical and acoustic modes equally share amplitude. This can enhance interlayer electron tunneling and may contribute to photoconductivity.

Abstract We demonstrate a quantum cascade detector with two coupled double-well structures exhibiting a high peak responsivity of 166 mA W−1 for 8.2 μm detection at 80 K. The coupled double-absorption-well design offers enhanced absorption efficiency. Meanwhile, incorporating another coupled double-well structure in the extractor increases the extraction efficiency.

Abstract:
Next-generation dark matter (DM) detectors searching for weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) will be sensitive to coherent scattering from solar neutrinos, demanding an efficient background-signal discrimination tool. Directional detectors improve sensitivity to WIMP DM despite the irreducible neutrino background. Wide-bandgap semiconductors offer a path to directional detection in a high-density target material. A detector of this type operates in a hybrid mode. The WIMP or neutrino-induced nuclear recoil is detected using real-time charge, phonon, or photon collection. The directional signal, however, is imprinted as a durable sub-micron damage track in the lattice structure. This directional signal can be read out by a variety of atomic physics techniques, from point defect quantum sensing to x-ray microscopy. In this Review, we present the detector principle as well as the status of the experimental techniques required for directional readout of nuclear recoil tracks. Specifically, we focus on diamond as a target material; it is both a leading platform for emerging quantum technologies and a promising component of next-generation semiconductor electronics. Based on the development and demonstration of directional readout in diamond over the next decade, a future WIMP detector will leverage or motivate advances in multiple disciplines toward precision dark matter and neutrino physics.

Abstract:
We present a four-channel wavelength division demultiplexing detector using the principle of quantum confined Stark effect. This device is based on a ridge waveguide GaAs–AlGaAs single quantum well graded index separate confinement heterostructure. Four detectors are fabricated sequentially along the wave guide and their band gaps are tuned to progressively smaller values by applying progressively larger reverse bias voltages. Thus each detector responds preferably to one of the four input wavelengths. For transverse electric polarization, better than −10 dB crosstalk was achieved with a 14 nm wavelength separation. When operated as a three-channel device, better than −15 dB crosstalk was achieved with a 18 nm wavelength separation. For transverse magnetic polarization, better than −10 dB crosstalk was achieved with a 16 nm wavelength separation. We also present a theoretical study that leads to the optimization of the device.

Abstract:
AbstractTwo photodetectors for measuring transmission and two bulky, separated narrowband filters for picking a target gas absorption line and a non-absorbing reference from broadband emission are typically required for dual-band non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) gas sensing. Metal-dielectric-metal (MDM) metasurface plasmon cavities, precisely controllable narrowband absorbers, suggest a next-generation, nanophotonic approach. Here, we demonstrate a dual-band MDM cavity detector that consolidates the function of two detectors and two filters into a single device by employing resonant photon sorting-a function unique to metasurfaces. Two MDM cavities sandwiching a quantum well infrared photodetector (QWIP) with distinct resonance wavelengths are alternately arranged in a subwavelength period. The large absorption cross section of the cavities ensures ~95% efficient lateral sorting of photons by wavelength into the corresponding detector within a near-field region. The flow of incident photons is thus converted into two independent photocurrents for dual-band detection. Our dual-band photodetectors show competitive external quantum efficiencies up to 38% (responsivity 2.1 A/W, peak wavelength 6.9 5m) at 78 K. By tailoring one resonance to an absorption peak of NO2 (6.25 5m) and the other to a non-absorbing reference wavelength (7.15 5m), NDIR NO2 gas sensing with 10 ppm accuracy and 1 ms response times is demonstrated. Through experiment and numerical simulation, we confirm near-perfect absorption at the resonant cavity and suppressed absorption at its non-resonant counterpart, characteristic of resonant photon sorting. Dual-band sensing across the mid-infrared should be possible by tailoring the cavities and quantum well to desired wavelengths.

Abstract:
Quantum measurements of physical quantities are often described as ideal measurements. However, only a few measurements fulfil the conditions of ideal measurements. The aim of the present work is to describe real position measurements with detectors that are able to detect single particles. For this purpose, a detector model is developed that can describe the time dependence of the interaction between a non-relativistic particle and a detector. The example of a position measurement shows that this interaction can be described with the methods of quantum mechanics. At the beginning of a position measurement, the detector behaves as a target consisting of a large number of quantum mechanical systems. In the first reaction, the incident particle interacts with a single atom, electron or nucleus, but not with the whole detector. This reaction and all following reactions are quantum mechanical processes. At the end of the measurement, the detector can be considered as a classical apparatus. A detector is neither a quantum mechanical system nor a classical apparatus. The detector model explains why one obtains a well-defined result for each individual position measurement. It further explains that, in general, it is impossible to predict the outcome of an individual measurement.

Abstract:
We report a very long wave (14 μm) infrared quantum cascade detector based on a twin-well coupled absorption region operating at temperatures up to 130 K. By introducing two coupled absorption quantum wells that have the same width, the absorption strength and responsivity of the detector are increased relative to the single-well design. At 77 K, we observe a responsivity of 4.06 mA/W at zero bias, which is 4.27 times that of the single-well counterpart. The responsivity is further optimized for reverse bias operation, so that the obstruction of space charge field to electron transport is compensated. The photocurrent reaches a maximum value at 77 K for an applied bias of −1.3 V, and responsivity as high as 23.76 mA/W, which is 5.85 times that under zero bias, is obtained.

Abstract:
We theoretically study the wavelength and the propagation length of the edge magnetoplasmons (EMP's), running along the edge of a two-dimensional (2D) electron layer in a semiconductor quantum-well structure with and without metallic gates. We show that the metallic gate suppresses the propagation of the EMP's, but the quality factor of the wave (q′/q″, where q′ and q″ are the real and imaginary parts of the complex EMP wavevector) can be larger in the gated structures as compared to the structures without the gate. The results may be useful for analysis of operation of the recently discovered microwave detectors and spectrometers operating at liquid nitrogen temperatures (Kukushkin et al., Appl. Phys. Lett. 86, 044101 (2005)).

Abstract:
A GaAs / AlGaAs multi-quantum well (MQW) structure has been grown by solid source molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) and fabricated to detectors. A spectral response curve of the detector with full width at half maximum (FWHM) = 3.78 μm and peak wavelength = 9.73 μm has been obtained at a bias of E = 3 × 103 Vcm -1 at T = 77 K. We study the bandwidth of the GaAs / AlGaAs quantum well infrared photodetector (QWIP) by using effective mass approximation. It is found that the transmissivity of the electron through the potential barrier reaches its maximum value (T = 1) on the condition of resonance transmission in a multi-quantum well structure, if the energy state is defined as a conduction state when the transmissivity of electron through the potential barrier on which is bigger than 1/2, then, a series of separated conduction microbands were formed above the barriers which consist of conduction states. Under the influence of an external electric field, the conduction microbands stagger periodically among the quantum wells to form a Wannier–Stark ladder. When optical excitation occurs, electrons not only vertically transit from Fermi level EF in a quantum well to conduction microbands above the well, but also obliquely transit to the conduction microbands above the neighboring well, and the formed photocurrent peaks overlap together; consequently, the bandwidth of the photoresponsive spectrum is improved. The calculated bandwidth of the photocurrent spectrum agrees well with the measured one in our experiment.

Abstract:
AbstractThe integration of quantum well infrared photodetectors with plasmonic cavities has allowed for demonstration of sensitive photodetectors in the mid-infrared up to room-temperature operating conditions. However, clear guidelines for optimizing device structure for these detectors have not been developed. Using simple stripe cavity detectors as a model system, we clarify the fundamental factors that improve photodetector performance. By etching semiconductor material between the stripes, the cavity resonance wavelength was expected to blue-shift, and the electric field was predicted to strongly increase, resulting in higher responsivity than unetched stripe detectors. Contrary to our predictions, etched stripe detectors showed lower responsivities, indicating surface effects at the sidewalls and reduced absorption. Nevertheless, etching led to higher detectivity due to significantly reduced detector dark current. These results suggest that etched structures are the superior photodetector design, and that appropriate sidewall surface treatments could further improve device performance. Finally, through polarization and incidence angle dependence measurements of the stripe detectors, we clarify how the design of previously demonstrated wired patch antennas led to improved device performance. These results are widely applicable for cavity designs over a broad range of wavelengths within the infrared, and can serve as a roadmap for improving next-generation infrared photodetectors.

Abstract:
We study an electrostatic qubit monitored by a point-contact detector. Projecting an entire qubit-detector wave function on the detector eigenstates we determine the precision limit for the qubit measurements, allowed by quantum mechanics. We found that this quantity is determined by qubit dynamics as well as decoherence, generated by the measurement. Our results show how the quantum precision limit can be improved by a proper design of a measurement procedure.

Abstract:
The advent of intense synchrotron radiation sources for X-ray diffraction has made many otherwise difficult experiments feasible. The increased intensity will not he fully utilized, however, unless there are farther developments in detector technology. Improvement in detector characteristics will, of course, aid those using laboratory sources as well. For instance, construction of low noise, high, quantum efficiency detectors will reduce integration times and enable one to detect weak signals.
