Abstract

The invention discloses a single photon avalanche diode with high detection efficiency and a manufacturing method thereof. The multiplication region of the traditional single photon avalanche photodiode is relatively thin, which leads to commonly low detection sensitivity and photon detection efficiency. The single photon avalanche diode with high detection efficiency comprises a p- substrate layer, a p epitaxy layer, an n+ buried layer, an n-type charge layer, an inverted deep n well, a p-type charge layer, a p- semiconductor layer, an n well layer, shallow groove isolation layers, a p-type semiconductor layer, an n+ semiconductor layer, a p+ light absorption layer, a silicon dioxide anti-reflection film, a silicon nitride anti-reflection film, an anode electrode and cathode electrodes which are arranged coaxially. The p+ light absorption layer, the p-type semiconductor layer and the p-type charge layer are adopted to form a p+ / p / p-type charge layer structure, current can expand horizontally first and then flow to the avalanche multiplication region, the spectral response is increased, and the absorption of the light wavelength by the single photon avalanche diode can be effectively improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of single photon detection, and in particular relates to a single photon avalanche diode with high detection efficiency and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] Single-photon detection technology is a very low-light detection and sensing technology, which has been widely used in contemporary life, such as in bioluminescence, quantum communication, astronomical research, and high-sensitivity sensors. As the core device of single photon detection, the single photon avalanche diode based on CMOS technology has attracted more and more attention and attention of researchers. Among them, the photon detection efficiency (Photon Detection Efficiency, PDE) is a key factor to measure the single photon detection ability of the avalanche photodiode. Therefore, designing a device structure with high photon detection efficiency is of great significance and use value. [0003] The traditional sin...
