    Abstract:

    Blocked impurity band (BIB) detectors are the state-of-the-art choice for far infrared astronomical observation. Ge:B BIB far infrared detector has been successfully developed using near-surface processing techniques. The spectral response covers a wide range from 50 cm-1 to 400 cm-1. At a temperature of 3.5 K and a working voltage of 30 mV, the detector exhibits a highly competitive responsivity of 21.46 A?W-1 and a highly competitive detectivity of 4.34×1014 cm?Hz1/2?W-1 at the peak response of 84.9 cm-1. The influence of the interfacial barriers on the spectral response is investigated. A new excitation model that the carriers in the contact regions can be excited over the interfacial barriers is proposed. Moreover, a new method to enhance the relative response intensity of BIB detectors in the low wavenumber region is found.
