We studied the influence of the final state in a bound-to-quasibound transition in the photocurrent sign on quantum dot structures for photodetection. We measured a photocurrent with positive and a negative sign for the same external field for different wavelengths. This process can be seen for very small external applied bias voltages and when no bias is applied. For high external fields the photo excited electrons flows in the direction of the field, as expected.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
