Abstract(in English) Intersubband transition (ISBT) in GaN/AlN multiple quantum structure is an attractive candidate for the mechanism of next generation optical communication devices due to optical communication wavelength (1.55μm) carrier transition with ultrafast carrier relaxation time (140fs). On the other hand, the GaN nanocolumn has high crystalline due to dislocation free nature. In this study, we fabricated to photodetector structure and detection characteristics were evaluated, GaN nanocolumn were grown on Si(111) substrate inserting GaN/AlN multiple quantum disk (MQD) by RF-plasma assisted molecular beam epitaxy (RF-MBE). The absorption peak at 1.59μm by P-polarization light was observed. On the nanocolumn wafer Ti/Al thick electrode was deposited. The photodetection of GaN/AlN-MQD was occurred by irradiating the 1.47μm wavelength laser light at room temperature for the first time. The backside illumination has five times larger detectioncurrent than the surface illumination. Moreover, to confirm whether the principle of operation was ISBT, the dependence of polarization and wavelength etc. were evaluated. Those measurements were suggested that the origin of photodetection be ISBT because behavior to follow to the ISBT phenomenon of photocurrent had been seen.
