摘要
A GaAs/AlGa-As detector is demonstrated showing multiple detection capabilities. This detector exhibits a broad spectral response in the 200-870 nm (ultraviolet-visible) range for forward bias and in the 590-870 nm (visible) range for reverse bias. In the mid-IR region, two peaks at 5 and 8.9 mu m can be observed for low and high forward bias voltages, respectively. In addition, the peak at 8.9 mu m is sensitive to the polarization of the incoming radiation. (C) 2009 Optical Society of America
