Abstract Using a linear graded InxGa1-xAs as the buffer layer, positive-intrinsic-negative wavelength-extended In0.6Ga0.4 As photodetectors with 50% cut-off wavelength of 1.9μm at room temperature were grown by using gas-source molecular beam epitaxy, and their performance over a wide temperature range has been extensively investigated. The detectors show typical dark current at bias voltage 50mV and the resistance--area product R0A of 7nA/765\Ωcm2 and 31pA/404kΩcm2 at 290K and 210K, respectively. The thermal activation energy of the dark current in the temperature range 250--350K is 0.488eV.
