N2 - InAsSb-based nBn photodetectors were fabricated on GaAs, using the interfacial misfit (IMF) array growth mode, and on native GaSb. At −0.1 V operating bias, 200 K dark current densities of 1.4 × 10−5 A cm−2 (on GaAs) and 4.8 × 10−6 A cm−2 (on GaSb) were measured. At the same temperature, specific detectivity (D*) figures of 1.2 × 1010 Jones (on GaAs) and 7.2 × 1010 Jones (on GaSb) were calculated. Arrhenius plots of the dark current densities yielded activation energies of 0.37 eV (on GaAs) and 0.42 eV (on GaSb). These values are close to the 4 K bandgap of the absorption layers (0.32–0.35 eV) indicating diffusion limited dark currents and small valence band offsets.
