Problems solved by technology

The actual PN junction can be divided into three parts: the horizontal cylindrical junction, the vertical planar junction, and the spherical junction at the corner. Since the curvature radius of the cylindrical junction and the spherical junction is smaller than that of the planar junction, the cylindrical junction and the spherical junction The electric field at the junction is seriously concentrated, so that the tunneling current associated with the electric field at the cylindrical and spherical junctions is much higher than that at the planar junction, and the avalanche breakdown voltage at the cylindrical and spherical junctions is lower than The avalanche breakdown voltage at the planar junction limits the effective operating bias range and corresponding gain range of HgCdA avalanche diode detectors in linear mode

Abstract

The present invention proposes a planar mercury cadmium telluride avalanche diode detector and its preparation method, which are used to reduce the electric field intensity in the cylindrical junction and spherical junction depletion region of the planar mercury cadmium telluride avalanche diode detector, thereby reducing the corresponding tunneling current, increase the avalanche breakdown voltage, and increase the gain in linear mode. The method includes: depositing a passivation layer on the surface of HgCdTe; performing P-type doping on HgCdTe through conventional doping; performing N-type doping on P-type HgCdTe materials through conventional doping to form N + Central region, highly doped N + guard ring and low doping N ‑ region; generate a penetrating passivation layer located in a highly doped N + The photosensitive element electrode contact hole and the common electrode contact hole of the central area and the HgCdTe P-type doped area; the photosensitive element electrode and the common electrode are formed in the electrode contact hole.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of infrared detectors, in particular to a planar mercury cadmium telluride avalanche diode detector and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] HgCdTe avalanche diode detectors can work in Geiger mode and linear mode respectively according to different working bias voltages. In Geiger mode, the working bias voltage of the HgCdTe avalanche diode detector is higher than the avalanche breakdown voltage, and the output signal amplitude has nothing to do with the received photoelectric signal amplitude, which requires an external circuit to quench the detector before The next signal detection; in the linear mode, the working bias of the mercury cadmium telluride avalanche diode detector is lower than the avalanche breakdown voltage, the gain of the mercury cadmium telluride avalanche diode detector changes with the bias voltage, and the received photoelectric signal can be processed High-spee...
