Herein, we clarify how the electron mobility of n-type layer would affect to the detection performances in the CQD-based avalanche photodetector (CQD-APD).

Metasurface apertures are attractive for producing such masks; however, many implementations rely on active tuning, cavity‐backed apertures, folded propagation paths, mechanical reconfiguration, or multiple feeds. This work presents a passive single‐layer randomized leaky‐wave metasurface aperture for broadband near‐field computational microwave imaging. The aperture uses a single feeding port and an integrated 16‐way microstrip power divider to launch guided waves along nonperiodic rows composed of six dispersive H‐shaped unit‐cell types. Eigenmode‐based analysis guides the selection of these unit‐cell types and clarifies how their nonperiodic loading produces frequency‐dependent near‐field masks through leaky‐wave radiation. The fabricated prototype integrates the aperture and feed network on a PCB, demonstrating broadband operation over 18–28 GHz, corresponding to 43.5% fractional bandwidth. Measured near‐field masks confirm broadband low‐redundancy spatial encoding. Imaging experiments demonstrate recovery of test targets and 5 mm two‐target separability in both transverse directions. These results show that static nonperiodic unit‐cell loading and broadband dispersion provide a compact, hardware‐efficient passive route to near‐field computational microwave imaging.","PeriodicalId":110,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Electronic Materials","volume":"84 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.2,"publicationDate":"2026-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149130613","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using temperature‐dependent microwave spectroscopy from the millikelvin regime to kelvin in the single‐photon limit, we systematically identify the dominant dissipation mechanisms governing device performance, including two‐level systems, quasiparticles, and interface‐related scattering, and correlate their contributions with wafer properties and fabrication routes. Despite the complexity of the hybrid architecture, the devices exhibit reproducible low‐loss microwave characteristics and maintain stable operation for more than two years without measurable degradation, demonstrating exceptional robustness under realistic operating conditions. Our analysis provides quantitative design principles for minimizing microwave loss in hybrid superconducting–semiconducting circuits while preserving compatibility with semiconductor quantum hardware.

Conventional TIAs utilize fixed‐gain resistors, which saturate under high input currents, resulting in undesirable recovery times. To overcome this, volatile resistive switching devices emerge as a promising alternative, offering intrinsic automatic gain control (AGC). Among these, vanadium dioxide (VO <jats:sub>2</jats:sub> ) devices stand out for their reversible insulator–metal transition (IMT), producing abrupt, energy‐efficient resistance changes near the transition temperature ( <jats:italic> T <jats:sub>C</jats:sub> </jats:italic> ≈ 67°C). In this work, switching devices were fabricated by sputtering a VO <jats:sub>2</jats:sub> thin film and patterning ∼200 nm electrode gaps. Before TIA integration, the switching dynamics were characterized under electrical pulse excitation. Slightly exceeding the temperature‐dependent IMT threshold voltage yields fast, reproducible switching. Pump–probe measurements show that operating well below <jats:italic> T <jats:sub>C</jats:sub> </jats:italic> suppresses short‐term memory effects linked to the stochastic first‐order transition. Leveraging this, a VO <jats:sub>2</jats:sub> ‐based TIA was developed, demonstrating variable gain and AGC functionality. Furthermore, applying a constant DC current bias during switching induced self‐sustained oscillations (∼1.5 pJ per oscillation) of up to ∼60 MHz, consistent with the VO <jats:sub>2</jats:sub> thermal timescale.
