The influences of different substrate materials on the optoelectronic properties of InGaAs detector are also compared and discussed. GaAs-based device shows a significant enhancement in detector with a better performance for a InGaAs photodetector compared to InP- based device. In addition, our results show that the device performance is influenced by the conduction band offset. This work proves that InAlAs/InGaAs/GaAs structure is a promising candidate for high performance detector with optimally tuned band gap.展开更多
