ABSTRACT:
An electromagnetic wave detector has several stacks of layers of semiconducting materials. Each stack constitutes an asymmetrical quantum well with stepped barrier and has two energy levels, one of which is located beneath the energy level of the intermediate barrier step while the other is located above it. Means are used to apply an electric field to the structure.
