Problems solved by technology

However, some key problems have yet to be broken through. For example, due to the lack of a lattice-matched and thermally-matched growth substrate in AlGaN, the defect density is high and the crystal quality is difficult to improve, which limits the device efficiency.

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductor optoelectronic devices, and relates to an ultraviolet-infrared dual-color detector based on a zinc oxide material and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] Modern informatization has increasingly high requirements for optoelectronic components, and photodetectors must accurately detect target information under complex backgrounds and strong interference. The inherent weaknesses and limitations of single infrared and ultraviolet detectors are becoming more apparent. [0003] Recently, new infrared detectors based on GaAs / AlGaAs multiple quantum wells and InAs / InGaSb superlattice materials have been developed rapidly. Currently, GaAs / AlGaAs, InAs / GaInSb, etc. are the new generation of infrared detection materials under development. The design detection wavelength of GaAs / AlGaAs QWIP can be from 5 to 25 μm, which is one of the ideal materials for infrared detection. H...
