Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of hole barrier layers, and provides a superlattice gradient energy band hole barrier layer structure, which includes n-level superlattice layers, and each level of superlattice layers includes layers grown sequentially from bottom to top. The InAs layer, the first GaSb layer, the AlSb layer, and the second GaSb layer, wherein the periodic thickness of the InAs layer is A, the periodic thickness of the GaSb layer is C, and the periodic thickness of the AlSb layer is C. The periodic thickness of the AaSb layer is x=n-1 in the nth superlattice layer, and in each superlattice layer, the total periodic thickness A+B+C is equal. An infrared detector is also provided, comprising the above-mentioned superlattice gradient energy band-hole barrier layer structure. In the present invention, by changing the insertion position of the AlSb layer in the superlattice layers at all levels, that is, at , the energy band gradient can be realized without changing the periodic thickness of the superlattice, and the total growth time of each layer is kept constant, and the conduction of the barrier layer is stable. The band offset is small, and the valence band offset is large, which meets the design requirements of the hole barrier layer. The structure can be adjusted flexibly, and the material is easy to achieve epitaxial growth.
