Intersubband dynamics in two-photon quantum well infrared photodetectors — •Carsten Franke1, Harald Schneider1, Jérôme Faist2, and H. C.

Two-photon quantum well infrared photodetectors (QWIPs) are interesting nonlinear devices for autocorrelation measurements in the mid-infrared and THz-regime. Here we investigate two-photon QWIPs in the mid-infrared with absorption wavelengths at around six microns, based on the material systems InGaAs/AlGaAs on GaAs and GaInAs/AlInAs on InP. We study the intersubband relaxation dynamics by interferometric autocorrelation. To create the necessary mid infrared sub-picosecond pulses, we use a regenerative amplifier system with subsequent wavelength conversion by optical parametric amplification and difference frequency generation. With this we can create mid-infrared laser pulses shorter than 200 fs tunable from 3 to 10 µm. For the intersubband relaxation time we determined values between 590 and 730 fs.
