Abstract
A variety of mid-, long - and very long– wavelength infrared (MWIR, LWIR and VLWIR) detectors and focal plane arrays utilizing InAs/InAsSb superlattices have been demonstrated in the last decade. At the same time, the transport properties of minority carriers in these structures became an area of active investigation after initial observations of hole localization at low temperatures attributed to the nonuniformity of superlattice layers thickness. In this work we study the dependence of minority carrier (hole) transport, absorption coefficient and quantum efficiency (QE) of a 5.6 µm cut-off wavelength MWIR InAs/InAsSb detector on temperatures and applied bias
