GeSn is a promising material for infrared photodetectors because its bandgap can be tailored by controlling the Sn composition. In particular, incorporating 10% or more Sn extends the detection wavelength from the short-wave infrared (SWIR) into the mid-wave infrared (MWIR) region. Moreover, the compatibility of GeSn-based group-IV materials with Si technology provides a viable route toward photonic integrated devices. In this work, we demonstrate a front-illuminated p-GeSn/n-Ge photodetector grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) and integrated with an infrared-transparent conductive oxide (iTCO) film.
