Abstract
Graphene-based infrared photodetectors are promising devices that exploit the unique optoelectronic properties of graphene, including its broadband light absorption characteristics, rapid response, and high chemical stability. However, graphene exhibits a low absorbance (2.3%), which limits its photoresponsivity. This paper introduces sensitivity-enhanced InAs/GaInSb type-II superlattice (T2SL) infrared photodetectors fabricated using a graphene diode structure. The devices consist of graphene diodes and InAs/GaInSb SLs grown via chemical vapor deposition. The T2SL structure is employed for both photocarrier supply source and carrier density modulation of the graphene diodes to improve the sensitivity of the devices. The dark current in the graphene diode device is reduced to less than 1%, which is lower than that in the GFET device, and the responsivity of the devices is significantly enhanced using the photogating effect. These highly sensitive and low-dark-current devices are expected to promote the development of high-performance graphene-based image sensors.
