Abstract

The present invention discloses a CMOS single photon avalanche diode detector of a near-infrared wide spectrum. The detector comprises a cylindrical P-type substrate, a P epitaxial region, a deep N well region, a center N well region, an N+ region and an annular first P well region, a side N well region, a second P well region and a P+ region which are coaxially arranged. The SPAD (single photon avalanche diode) detector forms a deep main avalanche region between the deep N well region and the P- epitaxial region to detect near-infrared shortwave photons; and the deep N well is internally provided with two shallow secondary avalanche ring regions capable of detecting the shortwave photons so as to achieve detection of wide spectrum photons from blue light to the near-infrared shortwaves. The CMOS single photon avalanche diode detector can be manufactured by employing a standard CMOS technology, and is high integration, low in power loss and high in capacity of resisting disturbance.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a near-infrared broad spectrum CMOS single-photon avalanche photodiode detector, which belongs to the field of photoelectric technology. Background technique [0002] Single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) detection devices have the advantages of high detection efficiency, fast response speed, and low power consumption, and have been widely used in biomedicine, military, optical communications and other fields. SPAD detectors based on CMOS technology can integrate SPAD devices and quenching, counting and readout circuits into one chip, thereby realizing a low-cost, highly integrated and highly reliable array detector. However, in specific application fields such as distance measurement, fluorescence lifetime analysis, optical tomography, and fiber optic communications, in order to avoid damage to the human eye from the laser light source of the SPAD detector, the laser wavelength is generally required to be in the infrared band o...
