Popis: InAs/GaSb type II superlattices (T2SLs) were grown heteroepitaxially, via metallorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD), on GaAs substrates. The 7% lattice mismatch between the T2SL and GaAs substrate was accommodated through the use of a two-step InAs buffer layer. The periodicity of the grown structures was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD). FTIR measurements of the structures yielded cutoff wavelength values from 4.9 μm to 8.7 μm, which, as expected, scaled with thickness of the InAs in the SL structure. Kronig–Penny modeling of the structures produced the general trend of the experimental data.
