title = "Device model of integrated QWIP-HBT-LED pixel for infrared focal plane arrays",
abstract = "We propose and evaluate a novel device based on integration of quantum well infrared photodetector (QWIP), heterostructure bipolar transistor (HBT), and light emitting diode (LED) for up-conversion of middle infrared into near infrared (visible) radiation. Its operation is associated with intersubband absorption of middle infrared radiation in the QWIP, amplification of the QWIP output electric signal in the HBT and emission of near infrared or visible radiation from the LED driven by the current injected from the HBT. The integrated QWIP-HBT-LED device can serve as a highly effective pixel for infrared focal plane arrays.",
