Problems solved by technology

However, this invention requires the heteroepitaxial InSb material on the silicon substrate, which will cause a large number of dislocations or defects in the n-type InSb region, especially near the interface between the silicon substrate and the n-type InSb region, and affect the flow of photogenerated carriers. Generate and capture a large number of photogenerated carriers. In addition, the invention also needs to prepare silicon microlenses, so the invention is difficult to realize
