摘要：
We developed a novel single-photon detector in the long wave infrared (LWIR) spectral region. The detector is a charge-sensitive infrared phototransistor (CSIP) fabricated in a GaAs/AlGaAs double quantum well (QW) structure, in which a photo-generated hole (+e) in the floating gate (upper QW) modulates the capacitivelycoupled conductance of the underneath channel (lower QW). The high responsivity (R=4x10(6) A/W) and specific detectivity (D*=1x10(15) cmHz(1/2)/W) are achieved. The dynamic range is extended beyond 10(7) (similar to aW to pW) by repeatedly resetting the accumulated holes in the upper QW. The simple structure is feasible for detector array fabrication.
