Abstract

The invention belongs to the fields of photoelectric detection and image sensors, and in order to inhibit fringe field and reduce device dark current while guaranteeing a high field in the central area of the device, reference basis is provided for industrial application. The invention discloses a two-stage table-top InGaAs / InP avalanche photodiode and a preparation method thereof. The structure comprises an N<+>-InP substrate, an N-InP buffer layer, an N<->-InGaAs In0.53Ga0.47As absorbed layer, an N-InGaAsP In(1-x)GaxAsyP(1-y) component gradient layer, an N-InP charge layer, an i-InP multiplying layer, a P-InP field buffer layer and a P<+>-InP contact layer, wherein the P-InP field buffer layer forms a shallow table-top through etching, the N-InP buffer layer forms a deep table-top through etching, and constant impact ionization of photon-generated carriers inside the multiplying layer causes avalanche multiplication. The avalanche photodiode is mainly applied to the design occasionsof photoelectric detection and photoelectric sensors.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of photoelectric detection and image sensors, and relates to a two-stage mesa InGaAs / InGaAs / InP avalanche photodiode and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the rise of big data carriers such as the Internet of Things, cloud computing, and mobile Internet, the amount of information transmission has increased in an avalanche. Challenges to data center network architecture. The development of traditional electrical interconnection is slow, and it is difficult to meet the requirements of high-performance processor interconnection communication. In contrast, optical interconnection uses photons as the information carrier, which has the advantages of low loss, fast speed and low delay, and can greatly increase the communication bandwidth density and effectively solve the interconnection bottleneck. Therefore, it is an inevitable trend of future interconnection. [0003] Optic...
