In order to efficiency obtain a two-dimensional (2D) image in the 3 THz range, it is important to develop a 2D far-infrared detector array. We have developed a gallium-doped germanium (Ge:Ga) far-infrared photoconductor that has a longitudinal configuration. This structure is suitable for a large format monolithic 2D array. In this letter, we show that a transparent electrode that is responsive in the far-infrared range can be formed by ion implantation, and this layer contributed to increasing quantum efficiency. We obtained a high responsivity (16.2 A/W) and good noise equivalent power (2.6×10−17 W/Hz1/2) of Ge:Ga photoconductor in longitudinal configuration by combination of ion-implanted layers and Ge:Ga bulk material. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.
