Abstract
In this paper, a novel structure for detection of two different wavelengths in mid-infrared region is proposed. By attaching a capturing well to the active region, a common transportation path for electron excited by two different wavelengths is introduced. Calculated values for responsivity and detectivity in the designed Quantum Cascade Photodetector structure at 120K are: R1 (λ=6.85µm) =67.5mA W, R2 (λ=12.35µm) =118.5mA/W and D*1 (λ=6.85) =6.89×107 J , D*1 (λ=12.35 =1.2×108 J , respectively.
