Problems solved by technology

The front light input type needs to use InGaAs as the ohmic contact layer. During the diffusion process, the diffusion rate of InGaAs is slower than that of indium phosphide, which makes the PN junction interface concave and prone to local breakdown.
The concentration of the dopant zinc in the diffusion method of the diffusion furnace is fixed, and it is impossible to achieve different concentrations of doping in the two diffusion regions.
