Room-temperature oxygen sensitization in highly textured, nanocrystalline PbTe films: A mechanistic study

In this paper, we report large mid-wave infrared photoconductivity in highly textured, nanocrystalline PbTe films thermally evaporated on Si at room temperature. Responsivity as high as 25 V/W is measured at the 3.5 μm wavelength. The large photoconductivity is attributed to the oxygen incorporation...
