D07–Numerical simulation on the dependence of carrier transport characteristics on the thickness of the absorbing layer for GaAs-based blocked impurity band (BIB) terahertz detectors
The dependence of carrier transport characteristics on the thickness of the absorbing layer for Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) blocked-impurity-band (BIB) terahertz detector has been investigated in detail. It is found that responsivity linearly increases with the increased thickness of absorbing layer first, and after achieving a peak value, and then starts to dropping slowly.
