HIGH PERFORMANCE INAlAs/InGaAs METAL-SEMICONDUCTOR-METAL PHOTODETECTORS GROWN BY GAS SOURCE MOLECULAR BEAM EPITAXY

  • 摘要: 采用GSMBE方法及典型的器件工艺制成了用InAlAs作为肖特基势垒增强材料的高性能InAlAs/InGaAs/InP MSM光电探测器。用自制的测试系统对器件的直流和瞬态特性进行了测试,测试结果表明,器件的击穿电压大于30V,在10V偏压下暗电流小于20nA,对应的暗电流密度为3pA/μm2,优于已有的文献报导;器件的瞬态响应中上升时间小于20ps,半高全宽小于40ps,器件性能表明用此套GS MBE系统在优化生长条件下生长的InP系材料质量良好,在外延层晶体质量,本底杂质浓度及界面质量等方面已达到较高水平。

     

    Abstract: Gas source molecular beam epitaxy have been used in the growth of InAlAs/InGaAs MSM-PD structure, in which InAlAs ultra thin layer was used as Schottky barrier enhancement material. High performance MSM-PDs have been const ructed on the grown wafer using optimized growth conditions. High breakdown voltage of >30V and low dark current density of 3pA/μm2 at 10V bias have been achieved, this is the best result reported. Fast transient response of <20ps rise time and <40ps FWHM have been measured on this devices. The results confirm the inference that GSMBE is a superior method for the growth of III-V materials with high layer and interfacial quality, especially for InP based InAlAs/In GaAs system.
