Abstract

The ultra fast carrier dynamic in GaN/AlGaN quantum cascade detector was investigated using a time-resolved bias-lead monitoring technique. It is demonstrated that the intrinsic speed limitation, governed by the carrier transit time, is smaller than 1 ps, corresponding to a frequency cut off above 200 GHz.
