Abstract
We report on the molecularโbeam epitaxial growth, fabrication and characterization of AlN/GaN photovoltaic quantum well infrared photodetectors operating at 1.55 ยตm. Devices display a spectrallyโnarrow photovoltaic response to pโpolarized light in the near infrared at room temperature. We have analysed the effect of the growth temperature, quantum well thickness, and number of periods in the active region, concluding that responsivity is enhanced by growing at relatively low temperature and by increasing the number of quantum wells.
