Electron Dynamics and Performance Issues in Infrared and Visible Detectors

Due: May 1, 2025

$100,000

Description

We perform both theoretical and experimental researches on III-V and II-VI semiconductor-based quantum-well (QW) and superlattice (SL) infrared (IR) detectors, such as HgTe/CdTe, InAs/InGaSb, and GaAs/AlGaAs QWs and SLs. We investigate the band structure, optical absorption, quantum efficiency, dark, and photo-current of these materials and detectors, as well as new designs of surface-plasmon enhanced, frequency tunable, and polarization-sensitive IR detectors. We are also interested in silicon visible detector arrays hybridized...

Conducted by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine's Fellowships Office since 1954, these programs offer a comprehensive research experience through a rigorous selection process. The programs aim to: 1) Offer promising postdoctoral and senior scientists/engineers the chance to pursue self-directed research aligned with sponsoring laboratories' goals, 2) Enhance comprehensive research efforts of participating laboratories, 3) Provide recent doctoral graduates a platform for focused research collaboration with permanent laboratory staff, and 4) Foster professional growth by providing opportunities to gain skills, experience, and connections with leading scientists, ultimately enhancing career prospects in academia, industry, or government research roles. The programs provide mentorship, access to state-of-the-art facilities, and opportunities to influence government policy.
