AI Article Synopsis

  • The article investigates nanostructured components designed to absorb long-wave infrared (LWIR) light, using a type-II superlattice (T2SL) absorber and nanostructured InAsSb.
  • Two different thicknesses of the T2SL, 1.6 μm and 300 nm, were studied, showcasing significant absorption due to optical resonance and broad angular acceptance.
  • A fabrication process was established, and the results of optical measurements validated the effectiveness of the model used in the study.

Article Abstract

This article deals with the optical study of nanostructured components which absorb light across the entire long-wave infrared (LWIR) spectral band. The components are made of type-II superlattice (T2SL) absorber and highly doped InAsSb, the latter being nanostructured to ensure multiple resonances. We studied two components: in the first one, the T2SL has a thickness of 1.6 μm, and in the second its thickness is 300 nm. The calculated absorption spectra were shown and the components revealed high absorption thanks to optical resonance and high angular acceptance. A fabrication process has been developed, and optical measurements have confirmed the reliability of the model.
