We report the design, growth, processing, and characterization of resonant cavity enhanced photodiodes for the midwave infrared at similar to 3.72 mu m on GaSb. Using AlAsSb/GaSb mirrors, AlAsSb barrier and spacer layers and a thin 96 nm InAsSb absorber, we observed dark current and detectivity behavior superior to common InAsSb nBn detectors in the literature, with peak specific detectivity values of 8 x 10(10) and 1 x 10(10) cm Hz(1/2) W-1 measured at 250 K and 300 K, respectively. In the same temperature range, the linewidth of the detector response was 60% where the enhancement due to the resonant cavity was similar to 20x. We estimate that the devices can operate close to, or slightly above, the background-limited infrared performance limit imposed on broadband detectors for a 300 K scene. (C) 2019 Author(s).
