“…An intense vertical electric field, essential for ISBT absorption [26,27], is provided by the MDM cavity through rotation of the incident horizontal electric field to vertical, and intensity enhancement [14,28,29]. High responsivities [23], fast response times [24,30], and detectivities approaching theoretical limits [21,24,25,31], sufficient to replace toxic HgCdTe presently dominant at wavelengths beyond 5 μm, have been demonstrated.…”
