We study the effect of delta-doping on the hole capture probability in ten-period  p -type Ge quantum dot photodetectors. The boron concentration in the delta-doping layers is varied by either passivation of a sample in a hydrogen plasma or by direct doping during the molecular beam epitaxy. The devices with a lower doping density is found to exhibit a lower capture probability and a higher photoconductive gain. The most pronounced change in the trapping characteristics upon doping is observed at a negative bias polarity when the photoexcited holes move toward the  δ -doping plane. The latter result implies that the  δ -doping layers are directly involved in the processes of hole capture by the quantum dots.
