Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing an MSM photodetector with an integrated period-limited light structure, which belongs to the technical field of photodetectors. The method for preparing the MSM photodetector in the invention includes: preparing a semiconductor thin film on a substrate; A number of interdigitated electrodes are formed on the film; several periodic holes are etched between each pair of interdigitated electrodes along the longitudinal direction of the semiconductor film to form a periodic light-limiting structure. Each periodic hole does not penetrate the semiconductor film layer, resulting in high-speed and high-efficiency MSM photodetector. The preparation method integrates a periodic light-trapping structure in the semiconductor thin film between each pair of electrodes, so that the detector has a larger light-trapping structure period and a smaller electrode spacing at the same time, ensuring the response rate of the MSM photodetector. At the same time, the light detection efficiency of the detector is effectively improved, and the invention is used in visible light and infrared detection and imaging technology.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of visible light and infrared detection and imaging, in particular to a preparation method of an MSM photodetector with an integrated periodic light trapping structure. Background technique [0002] Photo Detector (PD) is a key device for optical signal conversion in photoelectric detection system and optical fiber communication. At present, the ever-increasing speed of optical fiber communication systems puts forward higher and higher requirements on the response rate of photodetectors, and high-speed photodetectors have become an important research topic. Metal-Semiconductor-Metal Photo Detector (Metal-Semiconductor-Metal Photo Detector) or MSM-PD has gained wide attention and application due to its high responsivity, high sensitivity, simple structure, easy integration and low cost. [0003] MSM photodetector refers to the fabrication of metal electrodes on the surface of semiconductor materials to form ...
