the Dependence of Quantum Well Infrared Photodetectors Absorption Wave on Uniaxial Stress Abstract Quantum well infrared photodetectors(QWIP) are being focused on widely since it was produced in 90s of 20th century,and many progresses in development of QWIP are made recently.Compared with HgCdTe detectors, QWIP has many advantages,such as rapid response, detectivity near HgCdTe detectors and absorption wave could be adjusted by changing the parameters of the quantum well and so on. Therefore, QWIP is called as the new tribe of the infrared photodetector. Besides, the good and big area quantum well material are produced by the MBE and the MOVCD, so it is easy to investigate the big array, which is benefit to development of QWIP. Due to disruption and draft of energy band in strianed quantum-well,the absorptoin waves are multiple. So the strained quantum well infrared photodetectors is the novel studied area. Based on knowing the present development and working principle of QWIP, using theory of the electron reflection and interference and Matlab software ,and taking the uniaxial stress (strain) affection on energy band of quantum well into account , the affection on QWIP under uniaxial stress (strain) is studied in this thesis. The main contents as follows: The working principle and structure of QWIP were introduced in detail and the present situation and the applications of QWIP were summarized. Energy band of quantum well were calculated with the theory of the electron reflection and interference. The affection of uniaxial stress (strain) on energy band of quantum is concluded .Furthermore, the affection of uniaxial strain (stress) on QWIP absorption waves were calculated with Matlab software. The affection of uniaxial strain on dark current of QWIP were concluded and calculated with Matlab software. According to the research into affections of uniaxial strain(stress) on QWIP. A novel QWIP whose absorption waves could be ajusted by changing the stress was
