Description
This patent is not have discrete picture dot and adopt optical means directly to carry out the quantum trap infra-red focus planar chip design that infrared signal is read about a kind of.
In present quantum type infrared focus plane technology, photosensitive element chip all is made up of (as HgCdTe by the picture dot that separates on electricity on the space and the optics some, InSb, PtSi, infrared focal plane devices such as GaAs/AlGaAs Multiple Quantum Well), the scale of focal plane is fully by how many decisions of picture dot number, so the focal plane scale is determined by the level of current infrared optoelectronic technology and microelectric technique fully.So far the technical merit that is positioned at medium wave and LONG WAVE INFRARED window wave band (as 3-5 μ m and 8-14 μ m) infrared focus plane does not break through 516 * 516 yuan yet.And the SiCCD focal plane scale of visible light or near infrared band is above 1024 * 1024 yuan, and growth momentum is very strong, medium wave or LONG WAVE INFRARED focal plane scale with difference between the scale of silicon CCD focal plane mainly be because in, LONG WAVE INFRARED material and device technology relative immature due to.Simultaneously industrial quarters is in the input of the intensity that drops on the Si base device on the infrared device, and also will continue to keep this unequal situation, therefore any technology that the infrared focus plane function might be changed into by the auxiliary realization of SiCCD all is of great practical value.
Existing quantum type infra-red focus planar chip technology can resolve into following two aspects:
1. the preparation of quality material: this material must have good optics and electric property, the performance of resulting devices is the general performance of optics and electric property, be optical property must guarantee the infrared light of incident should be as far as possible fully by absorbed and produce corresponding photoelectron, then the electric property of material will guarantee that electronics has enough mean free paths, thereby can in device, move and export a signal of telecommunication, finish the task of infrared light being converted to the signal of telecommunication.
2. the preparation of device chip structure: this process need finish can with plurality of cells array reading circuit coupling, equally distributed on that isolate mutually, that have the good light electroresponse on the electricity, space, each unit performance high conformity, wherein will guarantee to have in the array of thousands of unit each unit performance consistent is difficulty very, has proposed very strict requirement for the flow process of whole technology.
In case said chip is finished, being radiated at the area branch electrical signal that infrared light causes on a certain unit can embody by this unit.So for being radiated at infrared image on the chip, the size of unit component has determined the size of picture dot, and first number how much determined spatial resolution.
The purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of quantum trap infra-red focus planar chip that discrete image element optical is read that do not have.It is independent of above-mentioned conventional principle, converts infrared signal to visible or near infrared light signal, thereby can directly survey with silicon CCD device, and whole technical process is simplified widely.
Purpose of the present invention reaches by following technical solution: said quantum well chip utilizes the extension means to grow to have the n type to mix and the quantum well structure material of p type doping, charge carrier in two quantum well all can cause electronics and hole to be drawn close mutually to continuous state and under outer field action by infrared ray excited, last recombination luminescence.Under forming on the quantum well chip, bottom electrode, the bias voltage that is added in relatively near p type quantum well near added bias voltage on the electrode of n type quantum well is positive, highly sensitive SiCCD device and lens and quantum well chip are integrated on assembly, the quantum well chip is worked being lower than under the low temperature of 80K, enter and reduce the luminous background of the visible light that causes by thermal excitation with the stray light of avoiding visible and near infrared band.And with SiCCD device record quantum well chip the direct optics of visible light image that the infrared light picture inversion becomes is read.
For convenience of explanation, it is as follows that we have provided elaboration schematic diagram of the present invention:

Below we do detailed elaboration to the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
By infrared light 4 only transmission and compound on the incident light direction of the auxiliary photoelectrons that produce, cause perpendicular to the diffusion on the incident direction to be subjected to luminous position and the infrared light point of irradiation difference greatest limit of position on the focal plane on the focal plane of the auxiliary visible light that increases of infrared light 5 be carrier mean free path and the optics cross-talk that caused by grating, as long as chip thickness enough thin (as reported less than 10 μ m), then this difference will be less than 15 μ m.So the auxiliary visible light 5 luminous patterns on chip of infrared light will overlap on the precision of error less than 15 μ m with the pattern of infrared light 4 self formation on being radiated at chip.Therefore just characterized the thermal imagery pattern of infrared light on chip by the auxiliary visible light luminous pattern of infrared light on the SiCCD device 3 observed chips.Realized the optics of infrared thermal imagery pattern is directly read.
1. being prepared as follows of chip:
More clear for principle being set forth, be example with the GaAs/AlGaAs quantum-well materials below.
(1) growth of chip thin-film material: referring to Fig. 3, adopt molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) or metal organic chemical vapor deposition film growth techniques such as (M0CVD), the typical quantum well structure material of growing is as the following structure of growing in turn on GaAs substrate 110: 10

Width is that first excited state has been in the continuous state position in 107 layers of GaAs quantum well of 2.55nm in said structure, and on the ground state owing to a large amount of electron accumulation of having mixed of Si; Width is that first excited state has also entered continuous state in 105 layers of GaAs quantum well of 2.36nm, and the doping owing to Be has the accumulation of a large amount of holes on the ground state.Simultaneously ground state and energy difference identical (120meV) between the first excited state in two traps.
(2) electrode preparation:
Referring to Fig. 4, top electrode 101 is used to add back bias voltage, directly is made on 103 layers of top.Bottom electrode 102 adds positive bias, directly be made in the bottom 109 layers on, by the corrosion 103 layers of parts, 104 layers, 105 layers, 106 layers, 107 layers, 108 layers of removal expose 109 layers, prepare electrode again on this layer.
(3) referring to Fig. 5, attenuate GaAs substrate 110 to 10 μ m, and on substrate, form grating by caustic solution, the infrared luminous energy of incident is coupled in the quantum well fully goes, produce electronics in 107 layers of hole in 105 layers of the quantum well and the quantum well from ground state to the first excited state transition.
2, the chip operation condition is as follows:
Clear for principle being set forth, continuing with above-mentioned GaAs/AlGaAs quantum-well materials is example.
Referring to Fig. 6, chip 1 is placed on one to be had and is on one side visible light optical window 7, another side is in the refrigeration Dewar 8 of infrared light optical window 6 of infrared band, infrared light 4 incident raies see through infrared optical window 6 and enter on the Dewar 8 arrival quantum well chips 1, convert visible light 5 to and go out to penetrate Dewar through visible light optical window 7.Chip refrigeration is to about 80K.
Grow the double quantum well thin-film material that contains doping of n type and the doping of p type with the MBE method, do electrode respectively in two quantum well outsides, add positive bias in n type quantum well one side, p type quantum well one side adds back bias voltage, this moment will be because runaway electron and hole in two traps causing of thermal excitation will be drawn close final scattering mutually or form exciton and by radiation recombination generation fluorescence (being similar to the luminescence process of optical diode) mutually.Because the poor of the ground state of n type doped quantum well and p type dopant well and first excited state (instructed the sub-energy level of being with in the trap to the n dopant well, p type dopant well is referred to sub-energy level in the valence band trap) identical and be (corresponding photon wavelength is about 10 μ m) about 120meV, so when outside when having infrared radiation about 10 μ m to impinge upon on this structure, be in and transit to first excited state after electronics on the ground state and hole can absorb infrared photon, be similar to the design of quantum well in the conventional quantum trap infrared detector, first excited state is placed the potential barrier mouth limit of trap or high-energy position more, then be energized into electronics on the first excited state and hole also outside under the electric field driven mutually near and produce radiation recombination.So just having finished the auxiliary visible fluorescence of infrared light strengthens.Say that in a sense such photoelectron process makes us combine the back to infrared light with electric energy and produces light photon, thereby make us can convert detection to detection visible light to infrared light.
The chip that said structure has been arranged, we also focus on the visible light on the chip on the SiCCD device 3 with a collector lens 2 before can being placed on SiCCD device 3 to this chip.The voltage direction that adds on the sample is consistent with infrared incident light direction.Two electrodes of drawing at chip add the bias voltage of 5V by polarity, be similar to light-emitting diode this moment, chip can produce faint electroluminescence, and go out to penetrate visible light 5 (wavelength is about 800nm) from visible light optical window 7, again the infrared light 4 (the about 10 μ m of wavelength) of incident is injected infrared light optical window 6, shine on the chip.At this moment because the electronics of the auxiliary transition of infrared light and hole can participate in the luminous of visible light by the mode of operation of Fig. 2.
3,, before the visible optical window 7 of Dewar, place lens 2 and a SiCCD device 3, visible light and the distribution of visible light luminous point on chip that direct detection is launched by quantum well chip 1 referring to Fig. 1 and Fig. 6.By direct produce luminous of bias voltage is equally distributed on chip.But the auxiliary luminous point of infrared light is corresponding to the infrared image that is radiated on the chip distributing on the chip.Be a uniform luminous background and a luminous pattern stack consistent with the infrared image on chip like this on the chip light emitting distribution patterns that is provided by SiCCD device 3, so far the infrared imagery signal has been read optically.
The present invention has following beneficial effect and advantage:
1, the present invention can be transformed into infrared imagery the visible light image easily, thereby jejune relatively infrared electro Detection Techniques problem is changed into the detecting technique problem of very ripe visible light wave range, and directly this develops to such an extent that the ten minutes mature technique combines with the SiCCD device.
2, the present invention's mode that infrared imagery is read is much simpler than common infrared focus plane playback mode, can avoid the high requirement to microelectronic technique that runs into when ultra-large (as 1024 * 1024 yuan of scales) clearly.
3, chip of the present invention does not need discrete picture dot when accepting infrared imagery.Thereby the picture dot isolation technics when not needing at present general preparation infrared focus plane and chip has been simplified process procedure widely.
4, the present invention can have good uniformity in visual imaging is used.Thereby improve widely as the focal plane uniformity characteristic of one of important indicator the most.Be different from the infrared focus plane technology of preparing of generally using, the chip uniformity among the present invention will be mainly by material self performance and the decision of SiCCD device uniformity.And the existing very good uniformity of GaAs series material, the uniformity of same SiCCD device also is much better than the uniformity of infrared focus plane.
5, the present invention will eliminate the possibility of the blind spot existence that needs eliminating in the focal plane.Chip plays a part a kind of Infrared fluorescence screen that need not electron beam scanning.
