Abstract

The invention relates to an n-Ge-i-Ge-p-Si structural waveguide-type photoelectric detector based on an LRC technology and a manufacturing method. The method comprises the following steps of manufacturing a SOI substrate; etching and forming a waveguide area, a coupling structure and a device poriton on a top layer Si layer surface respectively; growing a Ge material on a surface of the device portion and manufacturing a protection layer; heating a whole substrate, using a laser technology to crystallize the whole substrate, cooling and making the Ge material form a crystallization Ge layer, and removing the protection layer; growing a first Ge layer and a second Ge layer on a crystallization Ge layer surface; manufacturing a passivation layer on the whole substrate, using a selective etching technology to etch the passivation layer so as to form a P-type contact hole on the top layer Si layer surface and an N-type contact hole on a second Ge layer surface; and depositing metal in theP-type and N-type contact holes and completing interconnection so as to finally form the photoelectric detector. In the invention, by using the photoelectric detector, dark currents can be reduced, aconflict of a high speed response and quantum efficiency in a vertical light-entering-type optical detector is overcome, simultaneously a high speed and high quantum efficiency are guaranteed.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of integrated circuits, and specifically relates to an n-Ge-i-Ge-p-Si structure waveguide photodetector based on LRC technology and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] As the minimum feature size continues to decrease in accordance with Moore's Law, the electrical interconnection of integrated circuits has brought a series of problems such as transmission delay and bandwidth density. Therefore, optical interconnection has become a better choice for modern integrated circuits, where photodetectors convert optical signals into electrical signals are one of the key components of optoelectronic integration. With the development of optical communication technology, photodetectors with high responsivity, high quantum efficiency, low dark current and high response frequency bandwidth have been realized. [0003] At present, semiconductor detectors mainly use III-V semiconductor materials such as I...
