Problems solved by technology

In addition, InP single crystal growth is difficult and fragile, and the mobility is difficult to further improve, and its device performance is close to the limit level
In addition, due to the introduction of the InP capping layer, the incident light will be reflected multiple times between multiple interfaces, which will weaken the light entering the absorbing layer, thus seriously affecting the efficient absorption and conversion of the optical signal by the InGaAs infrared detector.

Abstract

The invention relates to a graphene enhancement type InGaAs infrared detector. The graphene enhancement type InGaAs infrared detector solves the technical problem that an existing infrared detector is narrow in detection range and high in dark current. According to the graphene enhancement type InGaAs infrared detector, a buffer layer, an InGaAs absorbing layer with wavelength extended and a graphene cover layer which grow sequentially on a substrate form a pin detector structure. The invention discloses a method for growing the mismatch buffer layer on the substrate in a two-step method. An InAlAs ternary system material or InAsP of an InGaAs material which is suitable for metallorganic chemical vapor deposition technology growth and convenient to control and enables forbidden bandwidth to be larger than extended wavelength is adopted and can effectively avoid mismatch dislocation and be suitable for a transparent buffer layer structure with light entering at the back. The method for utilizing graphene to serve as the cover layer of the InGaAs infrared detector to expand the detection range and reduce dark current is provided, detector performance is improved, and the graphene enhancement type InGaAs infrared detector has wide application prospect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the application field of optoelectronic materials and devices, in particular to a wide-band graphene-enhanced InGaAs infrared detector using a graphene film as a cover layer. Background technique [0002] InGaAs detector is one of the most important short-wave infrared detectors at present. The narrow detection range and high dark current are the main problems restricting its development and application. In recent years, the structure design of broadband InGaAs materials has become the latest hot research direction in the field of international semiconductor photodetection research. The study found that since InGaAs material is a direct bandgap material with full composition, the application range of the detector can be effectively expanded by increasing the In composition. However, increasing the In composition will inevitably lead to lattice mismatch between the InGaAs material and the substrate, and when the mismatch is lar...
